- 26 May: Public Health and Health Care Delivery in Conflict Settings, with Dr Annette Heinzelmann, Regional Emergency Director of the WHO Health Emergencies Programme, Eastern Mediterranean Region, on how protracted conflict deepens health crises, the challenges of delivering care in such conditions, and what international organisations such as WHO do to provide aid.
