This paper draws on the vision, mission and experience with the WHO Collaborating Centre on eHealth (WHOCC-eHealth) and Yunus Social Business Health Hub (YSBHH) based at UNSW Australia, and the Asia electronic Health Information Network (AeHIN). Global eHealth aims to provide equitable access to ICT and health care, particularly to the poor, vulnerable and disadvantaged. Social business aims to solve social and economic problem. Its best known product is microcredit financial services for the poor which are small loans that enable them to "produce something, sell something, earn something to develop self-reliance and a life of dignity". Citizen engagement and community participation is integral to both constructs within the context of global partnerships for Integrated People-Centred Health Services (IPCHS) and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The eHealth dimension is consumer heath informatics, social media, mHealth and the Internet of Things. The convergence is multidimensional, mutually beneficial and requires good governance and leadership.
本文借鉴了世界卫生组织电子健康合作中心（WHOCC - eHealth）、澳大利亚新南威尔士大学的尤努斯社会商业健康中心（YSBHH）以及亚洲电子健康信息网络（AeHIN）的愿景、使命和经验。全球电子健康旨在提供公平的信息通信技术和医疗保健获取机会，尤其是为贫困、弱势群体和处境不利者。社会企业旨在解决社会和经济问题。其最著名的产品是为穷人提供的小额信贷金融服务，这些小额贷款使他们能够“生产一些东西、销售一些东西、赚取一些收入以实现自力更生和有尊严的生活”。在全球综合以人为本的健康服务（IPCHS）和可持续发展目标（SDGs）的全球伙伴关系背景下，公民参与和社区参与对于这两个概念都至关重要。电子健康层面包括消费者健康信息学、社交媒体、移动健康和物联网。这种融合是多维度的、互利的，并且需要良好的治理和领导力。
