» Strengthening Health and Non-Health Response Systems in Asia: A Sustained Approach for Responding to Global Infectious Disease Crises
Organised by the RSIS Centre for Non-Traditional Security Studies the conference brought together stakeholders in regional and global health governance, including policymakers, analysts, medical practitioners, academics, as well as representatives of civil society groups and international organizations. The conference aimed to collectively identify priority action areas so as to close the gap between existing health systems and local communities' health needs, and examined ways to improve on non-medical responses in an epidemic or pandemic disease outbreak, particularly in countries without adequate surge capacity.
