partnership with iLabAfrica Centre at Strathmore University, invites university and TVET students across Kenya to participate in the Digital Health Financing Hackathon 2026.<\/p><p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">This initiative aims to inspire young innovators to develop practical, technology-driven solutions that strengthen healthcare financing systems, improve access to quality healthcare services, and support Kenya\u2019s Universal Health Coverage (UHC) agenda. Through a series of webinars, mentorship sessions, a virtual bootcamp, and a final pitching competition, participants will gain hands-on experience solving real-world challenges in the healthcare sector.<\/p><p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">Whether you are a developer, designer, health professional, entrepreneur, researcher, or student passionate about technology and healthcare, this hackathon offers an opportunity to collaborate, innovate, and create meaningful impact.<\/p><h3>Team Requirements<\/h3><ul data-spread=\"false\"><li>Each team must identify a Team Leader who will serve as the primary point of contact.<\/li><li>Teams must be nominated by a lecturer from their institution, who will act as an academic endorser.<\/li><li>Lecturer nominations must be submitted during
