Past Conferences and Meetings

CRED regularly organizes conferences, meetings and workshops on themes such as disasters, conflicts, displacement, and morbidity. Through these events, CRED hopes to develop and improve methods and tools to assess impacts and compile reliable data for evidence-based decision making. These conferences and workshops are often organized in collaboration with other research institutes, and bring together a multi-disciplinary group of participants from academia, NGO's, the United Nations, and governmental agencies.

You can also join our own summer course, "Assessing Public Health in Emergency Situations."

This 2-week course aims to familiarize health professionals with epidemiological techniques to assess the health impact of disasters and conflicts on affected communities. You can find out more about this course on the dedicated webpage aphes.be.
