Global Health Engagement: Leveraging New Technology and Multilateral Partnerships During the COVID-19 Pandemic
Abstract
United States government global health engagements range from delivering aid, to medical skill certification, and building multilateral partnerships with key leaders. This article discusses three critical questions to consider when planning engagements during pandemics. By expanding virtual programming, and including SARS-CoV-2 mitigation measures with in-person events, we can enhance support to partner nations through medical engagements.
