Dear friends and colleagues,
In the spirit of solidarity, the four global palliative care organizations [the International Association for Hospice and Palliative Care (IAHPC), the International Children’s Palliative Care Network (ICPCN), Palliative Care in Humanitarian Aid Situations and Emergencies (PALCHASE), and the Worldwide Hospice Palliative Care Alliance (WHPCA)] joined forces to develop a project on Palliative Care and COVID-19.
The four organizations invited experts from around the world to produce a series of Briefing Notes followed by weekly webinars. We hope that the Briefing Notes and webinars will serve to strengthen health systems and further integrate palliative care in policies and national health strategies.
The Briefing Notes and links to the Webinars will be posted on the Global Palliative Care COVID-19 website as resources free of charge to users. We will be using the WHPCA webinar platform for the webinars.
The first webinar of the series will be this coming Friday April 17th and will focus on Health systems and Issues specific to Low- and Middle-Income Countries. Speakers include:
