Inclusive Learning at WHO Academy

Project Overview

The WHO Academy is redefining healthcare education by making learning accessible, inclusive, and personalized. Using AI, and machine learning, the platform ensures that healthcare professionals—especially those with disabilities, long-term health conditions, and from underserved communities—have equal access to high-quality training.

Key features:

🔹 Accessibility First – High-contrast UI, text-to-speech, keyboard navigation, and dark mode.

🔹 Inclusive Learning – Supports six UN languages for global reach.

🔹 Personalized Learning Paths – AI-driven recommendations tailored to individual goals.

🔹 Verifiable Credentials – Helping professionals showcase their skills and grow their careers.

🔹 Tech-Driven Impact – Leveraging AI, ML, and AR to enhance learning experiences.

Impact so far:

🌍 3M+ learners from 231 countries gaining access to critical healthcare education.

🎯 Aims to reach 30M learners, with 50% from low- and middle-income countries.

🦠 Critical Response – Rapid deployment of essential training for frontline healthcare workers.
