How can we design for trust? What is the most transformative force in healthcare? On today's episode, you're going to learn how students at a design class at Stanford started Noora Health.
Edith Elliott and Shahed Alam are Co-Founder and Co-CEO of Noora Health, an international non-profit that improves health outcomes and strengthens health systems by equipping patients and their loved ones with essential caregiving skills. Working across 300+ health facilities in India and Bangladesh, Noora Health turns hospital hallways and waiting rooms into classrooms to deliver fit-for-purpose, high-quality training for post-surgical, post-delivery, and general care, then follows up with families at home using mobile messaging technologies. To date, Noora Health's programs have reached nearly 2 million patients and caregivers. Noora Health was named a 2022 TED Audacious Project grantee and recipient of the 2022 Skoll Award for Social Innovation.
