    Volume 8(1) includes a collection of symposium articles from Digital Health Data Regulation in a Neoliberal Era: Lessons from the Global South.  Guest Editors Sharifah Sekalala (University of Warwick), Tatenda Chatikobo (University of Warwick) and Pamela Andanda (University of Witwatersrand) draw on interdisciplinary socio-legal analysis and case studies from Latin America, Sub-Saharan Africa, the Community of Portuguese-speaking Countries and Asia, to examine how neoliberal pro-innovation agendas have reinforced asymmetrical power relations and regulatory failures, enabling extractive data practices that undermine health equity. Authors interrogate how neoliberal governmental policies and the pro-innovation approach affect digital health regulatory outcomes.
