These three plans were developed in coordination with the Disaster and Risk Management Cells in municipalities and union of municipalities and the District Medicine of the Ministry of Public Health in the Southern and Northern Lebanon governorates and the active involvement of local health institutions and bodies in determining reality and developing proposals and priority actions.

The symposium brought together national governments and local stakeholders involved in the implementation of the initiative in three countries: Egypt, Jordan and Lebanon. The symposium provided an opportunity to present and discuss the project’s results and share lessons learned to come up with recommendations for necessary remedial action to address and overcome future implementation challenges.
