Integrated Care Conference in Kosovo

The conference, chaired by Manfred Zahorka, Head of the Sexual and Reproductive Health Unit at Swiss TPH, discussed the concepts of integrated and people-centred care with national and local stakeholders including Municipal authorities and Primary Health Care institutions in Kosovo.

Key speakers included Juan Eduardo Tello, Head of WHO European Centre for Primary Health Care, as well as representatives from the International Foundation for Integrated Care (IFIC), and from the Scottish National Health Services. The conference was followed by a technical workshop where international experts facilitated a discussion with Kosovar partners on the design of a locally appropriate model of integrated care at primary health care level.

The AQH project is being implemented since 2015 by the Swiss Centre for International Health at Swiss TPH and is funded by the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation.
