Why do we need a multidisciplinary approach to solve complex problems related to health and the environment?

The recent COVID-19 pandemic is an important example to show the importance of a multi-disciplinary approach to strengthen health systems to support medical care. Many healthcare facilities did not have the appropriate infrastructure to support the surge need. Often transport of patients and test samples was not possible due to poor roads and less number of ambulances. Medical first aid is required for symptomatic management of patients with severe acute respiratory syndrome due to disruption of supply chains. In some countries, information technology systems were not in place to monitor epidemiological data and trace vaccination campaigns. Often the underlying problem is communication and coordination among different stakeholders.

Through the forum, we aim to bring different experts from disciplines of science, technology health and management together to find solutions to complex issues such as new emerging diseases, climate change and its effect on health etc. There is a need to sit together and think on integrating different disciplines so that we can find a long-term sustainable solution.
