Full Summary: A discussion on speed, efficiency, and equity in the allocation of limited public health resources in the era of COVID-19 and beyond.
Public Health Logistics and Supply Chain Management in the COVID-19 EraThe ongoing pandemic is demonstrating the importance of supply chains and logistics in the distribution of healthcare resources. The lack of resilience and agility of these systems has contributed to limited and unbalanced availability of critical resources, leading to the shortage and wastage of resources in different parts of the world. The 2021 Humanitarian Forum will focus on such disparities as well as policies and operational solutions to reduce them.
A Zoom link will be sent to you after registration.
Panelists:
This event is co-organized by the Consulate General of France in Atlanta, the Center for Humanitarian Emergencies and the Office for Global Strategy and Initiatives at Emory University, and the School of Industrial and Systems Engineering and the Center for Health and Humanitarian Systems at Georgia Tech.
