Epidemiology and Conflict  Avantage Quefaire.be

 
What can epidemiology tell us about war? And how can it help build peace? Join us for an eye-opening conversation on the powerful role of epidemiology in conflict zones - one that helps reveal the hidden toll of war, predict emerging crises, and shape life-saving responses.

Together with Sandra Melone and epidemiologist Xavier de Radiguès, we'll explore how epidemiologists measure the real impacts of conflict - excess mortality, famine, massive population displacement and outbreaks - and how this knowledge guides humanitarian action and global advocacy.

Our co-host, Xavier de Radiguès is a seasoned medical epidemiologist who has spent the majority of his career working in contexts of natural and/or man-made disasters with Médecins Sans Frontières/Epicentre, Médecins du Monde, and the World Health Organization.
