Registration details coming soon
The bombing of the Doctors Without Borders (MSF) trauma hospital in Kunduz, Afghanistan, brought international attention to the protection of healthcare in wartime and contributed to the adoption of UN Security Council Resolution 2286.
Ten years later, attacks on medical facilities remain an increasing feature of urban and technologically complex conflicts, threatening patients, healthcare professionals, and access to life-saving care.
Dr. Javid Abdelmoneim, MSF’s international president, and a panel of experts will examine the consequences of these attacks and discuss ways to strengthen accountability and respect for international humanitarian law.
