ABOUT

​
Under the Patronage of His Excellency General Joseph Aoun, the President of the Republic of Lebanon, The University of Balamand – Department of Public Health, Faculty of Health Sciences, in partnership with the Lebanese Army, is proud to host the Health, Emergency Action, and Leadership in Crisis Management Forum – HEAL, under the slogan "Building Back Stronger".

This forum is a landmark event within the framework of the 30th anniversary celebrations of the Faculty of Health Sciences, and it aims to address the critical challenges facing Lebanon’s healthcare system amidst a series of ongoing national crises.

HEAL Forum will take place on June 3 at the University of Balamand, Koura Campus, Zakhem Auditorium.

Over the past years, Lebanon has endured compounding emergencies—economic collapse, the COVID-19 pandemic, and the devastating impacts of conflict. The most recent war has further strained an already fragile healthcare infrastructure, revealing significant gaps in crisis preparedness and public health resilience. This forum seeks to unite national and international stakeholders to examine these challenges and propose strategic actions toward building a more robust and adaptive health system. The congress will feature keynote speeches, panel discussions, and expert-led sessions covering topics such as crisis response, healthcare policy, public health preparedness, and the health implications of climate change. It represents a unique collaboration between academia, the military, and international partners to promote integrated crisis management solutions.

Objectives
Public health and crisis management are inherently interconnected, requiring collaboration between government agencies, military healthcare services, humanitarian organizations, and the private sector.

This conference aims to:
  • - facilitate dialogue among key stakeholders,
  • - identify lessons learned from the latest conflict, and propose forward-thinking solutions to ensure Lebanon’s healthcare system is better prepared for future crises.
In the framework of celebration of the 30th anniversary of the Faculty of Health Sciences, the Public Health Department seek through this event to foster knowledge-sharing and actionable outcomes for a sustainable and resilient healthcare future in Lebanon.

This conference is a crucial step towards understanding the complexities of crisis management within Lebanon’s healthcare sector. By bringing together key stakeholders, the event aims to create a comprehensive discussion on how to better prepare for future crises, address the current weaknesses in the system, and anticipate sociopolitical and environmental challenges. The outcomes of this conference will serve as a foundation for stronger, more resilient healthcare policies and practices in Lebanon.

We are looking to the active participation of all our stakeholders to share their expertise and join us in shaping a sustainable healthcare future for Lebanon.

Building back stronger
