Date: 10 December 2024 / 16:00-17:15 CET
The World Health Organization and the O'Neill Institute for National and International Health Law are bringing together leading experts to discuss findings from an analysis of the national legal and policy environments shaping the lives and work of health and care workers in more than 180 countries.
We will be unveiling the findings of a new study, to be published in PLOS on 9 December and previewing new tools to support countries and their stakeholders to assess their policy and operational environment.
In the lead-up to UHC Day on 12 December, join us for a compelling discussion on how to bring forward the promise of the Global Health and Care Worker Compact.
