Prioritising Prevention
The COVID-19 pandemic and resulting global health challenges have starkly demonstrated the weaknesses and fragility of our current health systems. People with pre-existing non-communicable diseases, often modifiable through concerted prevention, are more likely to suffer adverse outcomes and increased mortality. If ever there was a time to reimagine, design research and catalyse action on prevention, it is now.
This webinar will be the first in a series which will view this challenge from a diverse range of perspectives to address questions including:
- What does the future of prevention look like?
- What influence has the COVID-19 pandemic had on the current and future prevention agenda?
- How can we make the case for investing in and advocating for prevention now?
Hear from our expert guest speakers and be a part of the discussion to provide insights on how we can harness the potential of our existing assets and infrastructures to build a bold vision for prevention and influence regional practice and research.
Speakers will include:
Dr Angelique Mavrodaris (Chair), Clinical Research Fellow and Consultant in Public Health Medicine, Public Health England – East of England
Dr Helen Walters, Public Health Consultant Advisor, NIHR
Mr Clive Needle, Senior Policy Advisor, EuroHealthNet
