This study introduces needs-based technology assessment, integrating community needs into evaluating health technologies. It highlights equity and values for better technology decision-making.

Area of Science:

  • Health Technology Assessment
  • Public Health Policy
  • Social Sciences

Background:

  • Health reports emphasize integrating population needs into technology assessment.
  • Previous technology assessment methods overlook community impact.
  • The 1993 World Development Report highlighted this gap.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review existing technology assessment approaches.
  • To identify the gap in considering community needs (physical, emotional, social).
  • To introduce and describe needs-based technology assessment (NBTA).

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of previous technology assessment methodologies.
  • Conceptual analysis to define needs-based technology assessment.
  • Description of various models for implementing NBTA.

Main Results:

  • Identified a critical gap in technology assessment concerning community needs.
  • Proposed needs-based technology assessment (NBTA) as a solution.
  • Highlighted the importance of equity and community values in NBTA.

Conclusions:

  • Needs-based technology assessment is crucial for aligning technology with societal well-being.
  • Incorporating equity and community values leads to more responsible technology decisions.
  • NBTA models provide a framework for practical implementation.
