“One of the unique points of this conference is that it spans the disease continuum, with examples rooted in different case studies such as diabetes or cancer but centred around the foundational health system pillars such as health financing or health systems strengthening. This will make the conference appealing to all types of stakeholders; from clinicians to policymakers who should attend in order to obtain good insights and learnings which they can then translate into their own settings across the region.”
