Dr Hans Kluge, WHO in Conversation with DCEDIY/DoH

A special joint event took place on Thursday February 22nd in Miesian Plaza between DCEDIY and our colleagues in the Department of Health.

The two Departments hosted a conversation with Dr Hans Kluge, WHO Regional Director for Europe.?Appointed in 2020, Dr Kluge has held a crucial role in the WHO throughout the Covid-19 pandemic and is a leading figure on the future of health systems in Europe. The event provided an excellent opportunity to learn about Ireland’s relationship with the WHO, to ask questions of a global figure in shaping care policy and to gain a greater understanding about the work being undertaken between the WHO & DCEDIY’s Disability Division.
