ICHG COVID-19 Webinar Series

Global child health professionals faced a unique set of challenges in responding to the COVID-19 pandemic. Across the world, the health and well being of children was given insufficient priority with interventions designed to shield the vulnerable and elderly placed many children and young people at risk.

In response to this ICHG hosted a series of global child health focused webinars exploring practical ways to prepare for the pandemic in LMIC and interventions to help mitigate the long-term effects. These sessions allowed child health professionals to share experiences, guidelines and resources and provided a supportive forum for discussion at a time of uncertainty.

The topics were:

Webinar 1: Facility Based Paediatric Care in LMIC in the COVID ear. Speakers -Dr Helen Brotherton, Dr Jessica Mvula and Dr Stephen Owens

Webinar 2: Protecting Child Healthcare Professionals in LMIC. Speakers - Dr Bridget Freyne, Dr Diana Kululanga and Dr Nellie Bell
