Welcome !

The International Workshop on e-Health in Emerging Economies - IWEEE - is a biannual meeting held in Europe and in Latin America.

Because of their geographical locations, Spain links Africa, Europe and the Americas, while Brazil concentrates on the Latin America reality.

This year slogan is "Commitment". It's time for individuals, public administrations and governments to adopt Free Software in public health, so we can all have access to good quality health care.

IWEEE is a success.The United Nations University IIGH is now an active member of the GNU Health community, and Paraguay started the migration to Free Software their health regional regions ( Project Ñamo Pyahu ) after attending IWEEE workshops.


This is our mission in GNU Solidario : Health and Education with Free Software
Some of the topics for discussion :

  • Free software in the health sector
  • e-Health in Public Health
  • Need for Free Standards in e-Health


  • IWEEE is not a pure technical conference. It will focus on the human factor and in raising awareness about the actual situation. We will discuss the tools that we can provide today to doctors and institutions to improve their habitants health and education.


    The workshop promotes Free Software as one of the main pillars for a sustainable framework for providing e-health and education for the developing and least developed countries.



    There will not be parallel conferences. All delegates will be able to assist and participate in the workshops that they find of interest. Communication among delegates is key.

    IWEEE is a non-profit event organized by the GNU SOLIDARIO association


    I hope you find this event as motivating and inspiring as I do and I'm looking forward to seeing you in Granada.
