    The 1st ICRC Conference on Weapon-Wounded Care

    The 1st ICRC Conference on Weapon-Wounded Care aims to promote and strengthen the continuum of care in conflicts and will take place at the CICG on the 17th and 18th December.

These exchanges will equip practitioners, academics, and other professionals to foster improved health outcomes and pave the way towards an optimal standard for weapon-wounded care.
