Across the globe, nations are switching to digital television at dramatic speed. The technology was in its infancy in the 1990s, but by the end of 2012 about half of the world's 1.2 billion TV households had converted to digital reception and some thirty nations, including the United Kingdom, had switched off analogue terrestrial television. In analogue television the broadcasters chose what we watched, when and where. With the full switch to digital television, and with broadcasting's convergence with the Internet, we can make these choices for ourselves. But can we shape those choices or are we at the mercy of technology and market forces? This book describes and analyses the digital television switchover with two broad aims: to show how lessons can be learned and transferred from one country to another, and to inform public debate about media policy during and after the switchover process, empowering citizens to influence and manage the outcomes.

Despite promising collaborative initiatives to develop principles, standards, and guidelines to help late adopters of digital health and developing nations catch up, policymakers are struggling to adopt and integrate digital technologies to their domestic health systems. With a large and growing selection of digital tools available, it is a challenge for countries to know what tools are both available and important and which tools best suit their context and needs for COVID-19 response and recovery and for building resilience to future crises. Underlying the discussions in this paper is an urgent need to restore and build greater transparency and public trust. The public needs to have confidence that digital solutions to public health emergencies protect them, respect their rights and empower them, and do not normalize the deployment of mass surveillance as the only way to deal with a crisis.
