The conference discussed actionable strategies to support recovery across two phases: i) early recovery and transition, and ii) long-term recovery. Every session was co-developed with its speakers, namely Palestinian and international health experts with experience in Gaza or other emergency settings. It was stressed throughout the conference that advocating for an immediate ceasefire remains the ultimate priority for humanity and to start rebuilding.
