The second edition of the LabelRoundtable series will dive into health apps from a healthcare professional perspective.
Label2Enable is an EU-funded project. Its task is to promote the adoption of CEN-ISO/TS 82304-2 and its quality label for health and wellness apps. The aim is a digital single market in which quality health apps are used at scale in prevention, health care and self-care. The project consists of seven Work Packages (WPs). The project consists of three pillars: Trust, Use and Adoption.
