Webinar: Innovative Healthcare in Ukraine on 25 March

HivNorge, Positiiviset ry/HivFinland, and Alliance for Public Health (Ukraine) invite you to a webinar where Alliance for Public Health will present its innovative work using digital solutions to support people living with HIV in Ukraine. Many of these people are internally displaced, and several have left Ukraine as refugees.

Much of healthcare infrastructure has been destroyed as result of war, and new challenges demand new solutions. Tetiana Deshko and Maria Malakhova from the Alliance for Public Health will present both the digital platform Help 24 TeleHealth and the app Twin.app, and the way they work. They will also elaborate on the issues regarding privacy and ways to reach vulnerable groups in society, such as sex workers or people who inject drugs.

Over the past 25 years, Alliance for Public Health has worked in Ukraine and is regarded as one of the leading international organizations in the field of HIV. The webinar will be held in English, with an opportunity to ask questions, and is relevant for healthcare and social service professionals, welfare workers, and civil society organizations.

This webinar is part of the project Integrated health services in times of war. Experiences from Ukraine, supported by the Nordic Council of Ministers.

Please, register by 24 March, 3 pm EET. Please note, that the first part is in Norwegian.

Welcome!

Healthcare Preparedness in the Nordic Region: How Prepared Are We?

Healthcare preparedness has received a lot of attention in recent years — and for good reason. The COVID-19 pandemic and the war in Ukraine have demonstrated how vulnerable our societies can be without a comprehensive and inclusive preparedness system. The Nordic countries generally have strong welfare systems, well-functioning healthcare services, and a high level of trust between authorities and population. There is also no shortage of preparedness strategies — but how well prepared are we in the Nordic region, really, in case of an unforeseen crisis?

And, is there anything we can learn from Ukraine when it comes to managing large-scale crises — especially in terms of protecting vulnerable groups in society, such as people living with HIV and other chronic diagnosis?

HivNorway, Positiiviset/HivFinland, HivSweden, and the Ukrainian Alliance for Public Health invite you to a panel discussion where these questions will be discussed.

The project and the event is supported by The Nordic Council of Ministers.

You can live-stream the event on Wednesday, 12 November at 3 PM (EET) via this link: https://vimeo.com/event/5434259
