Humanitarian missions are seriously in need of healthcare professionals and humanitarian people willing to help. During my mission to the Syrian Refugee Camps I witnessed how refugees are struggling to create a livelihood for themselves and their families.The war has left those affected in a desperate need for both physical and psychological support, and a big scope for improvement is yet needed.

After this session, participants will be able to:

1. Have a comprehensive view of the current humanitarian crisis situation


2. Understand how each person can provide help from his/her skills and experience


3. Appreciate methods to prevent such humanitarian crisis in the first place
