Ukraine: Health Logistics & Supply Task Team
About Health Logistics & Supply Task Team
The Health Logistics & Supply Task Team forum is chaired by the WHO Operations Support & Logistics (OSL) and acts largely as a “helpdesk” to find/share a variety of technical solutions regarding health specific logistic problems and HRPR user guidance. The effective mode of support has been bilateral in nature for specific issues and group meetings have been occasionally called to address relevant and timely topics. Topics of discussion can include health facility logistics (rehab, power, waste management, cold chain systems etc.), medical supply management (storage, transport, temp control, importation, HRPR request usage, etc.), and others.
