Sign up now for WHPA’s next interprofessional webinar looking at the connections between NCDs and AMR. UN member states have backed major, but separate, commitments to tackle both issues at recent High-Level Meetings (at the UN General Assembly held in September each year). At this webinar we ask how those commitments overlap and how interprofessional collaboration can help put them into action.
Interprofessional panel
Speakers come from the five WHPA member organizations, representing dentistry, pharmacy, nursing, medicine and physiotherapy. These experienced professionals will share guidance and know-how on the interlinkages between AMR and NCDs from within their own professions, as well as case studies of health professionals working together to improve AMR stewardship and continuity of care for people living with NCDs.
