ReBUILD for Resilience at HSR 2024

ReBUILD for Resilience work is well represented at the 8th Global Symposium on Health Systems Research 2024 in November. A full schedule of our oral presentations, panel sessions, capacity development sessions and posters is available here, along with other sessions related to our work in fragile and shock-prone settings.

Topics being presented include adolescent mental health in Myanmar, gender norms and power dynamics of female community health workers in Lebanon and Nepal, health system resilience in Afghanistan, health justice, climate-resilient health systems, and the health workforce in times of crisis. Team members are also presenting a capacity strengthening session on audio and multimedia in health systems research, a satellite session on principles and practices of health systems strengthening, and posters on a range of subjects (see below).

We’re also recording a series of special HSR2024 podcasts, reflecting on the symposium themes, chatting to attendees in Nagasaki, and getting a real sense of what’s happening there. Details below.

Recordings of our sessions and images of our posters will be available here soon so please check back.

There’s more on the symposium on the Health Systems Research website [opens new tab].
