MAP in association with Caabu and SOAS Palestine Society Presents
Terminal Decline?
Medical Aid for Palestinians' briefing paper launch on Palestinian refugee health in Lebanon. The report reveals that healthcare for Palestinian refugees in Lebanon is underfunded and chronically unfit for the needs of the refugee population. Of particular concern are the overburdened and under-resourced United Nations clinics, an acute shortage of Palestinians training to become doctors and an inadequate tertiary healthcare system that places unbearable stress upon patients.
Filippo Grandi, UNRWA Commissioner-General, will be on the panel to discuss the reports findings. Professor Rosemary Hollis will be chairing the event.
The discussion will be preceded by a drinks reception at 6pm.
