WHO and Ministry of Health collaborate to enhance Syria’s medical supply chain


The World Health Organization (WHO) has partnered with the Ministry of Health in Syria to hold a workshop, which, starting yesterday, aims to assess the national medical supply chain. This critical initiative will review essential processes, analyse distribution mechanisms and provide strategic solutions to establish a national logistics management system.

An efficient supply chain for medical resources is a vital component of modern health care systems, significantly reducing the number of deaths and illnesses. The ongoing Syria crisis, which began 12 years ago, has severely impacted the country’s health care system, hindering health care access. While efforts are being made to improve health care resources and provide access to basic health services, gaps in the supply chain continue to have a negative impact on health.
