The document outlines a facilitated user-driven design workshop called 'The Big Think,' led by Dr. Héctor Corrada-Bravo and Dr. Tyrone W. A. Grandison, aimed at fostering a hackathon mindset for solving healthcare informatics problems in Latin America and the Caribbean. Participants will identify, flesh out, and prioritize healthcare issues, discussing topics such as impacted individuals, necessary information, market inefficiencies, and effective communication. The workshop concludes with a focus on valuable 'crowd-sourced' data and group discussions sharing prioritized problems.
