Initiative status: As of May 1, 2026, the Health-RI Semantic Interoperability Initiative has been formally paused.
Existing documentation, released artifacts, persistent identifiers, and repository materials remain available for reference and citation. No further development or release activity is currently planned until a future phase is confirmed.
This repository hosts the source files for the Health-RI Semantic Interoperability Initiative documentation site, which presents our approach to enabling semantic interoperability in health and life sciences.
