Health access and care are among the most regulated, policed and often politicised, hence contested, issues in contemporary societies. And yet, little do we know about how mundane digital practices shape these dynamics, with research just starting to explore how extremely heterogeneous forms of participation are developing through the digital. This note, drawing on digital media research, the sociology of health and illness and science and technologies studies, reflects on the notion of «digital health citizenship», an umbrella term used to label contemporary instances of digital citizenship emerging in relation to health and illness. It specifically draws on work interested in the values emerging in so-called contemporary «biosocieties», critical studies exploring the political economy of digital health and research investigating digital platforms as technological agents of citizenship
