Artificial Intelligence (AI) has great potential in healthcare, but it also raises deep ethical concerns as it often discriminates vulnerable groups, amplifying systemic inequalities and preventing equitable access to healthcare. Bias-free AI systems can indeed still be deeply unjust, if they do not embed social justice principles; and the current ethics and governance frameworks that steer the design, development and use of AI tend to perpetuate forms of injustice both at the local and at the global level.

JustHealth aims at filling this gap by creating the first doctoral program in the EU and beyond to ensure social justice is adequately considered in the design, development and deployment of AI in healthcare.
