Humanitarian aid means different things to different people, but it aims to bring short term relief to victims until long term relief can be provided by the government and other institutions. Pharmacists are multi-skilled health professionals who are able to make significant contributions in these areas in a variety of ways, including acute care, supply chain management, systems strengthening and stakeholder engagement to name a few.

This chat will focus on some of the work pharmacists currently do around the world or are hoping to implement in the near future to deliver improved health outcomes in these countries.

  1. What does health resource mapping across the Asia-Pacific look like and what are you striving to achieve? 
  2. How do we effectively translate health data it into improved availability and improved use? 
  3. What is leading to this doubling of the burden of disease (overnutrition and undernutrition in such regions)? 
  4. How effective can pharmacy interventions in improving availability of essential medicines at a primary healthcare level?
  5. What has your work taught you about yourself and other health professionals that you have got to work with?
  6. What you would recommend to early career pharmacists wanting to get involved? 
  7. Skills, training and qualifications required in this area and how it has helped nurture your staff’s professional development? What are some key implications in effective supply chain management?
