The Estonian Defence Forces and Estonian Health Board invite you to participate in a joint conference on war and disaster medicine. The conference subjects this year are ethics, the legislation of armed conflict, civil-military cooperation and experiences from ongoing conflicts and wars.

The 18th War and Disaster Medicine Conference aims to bring together both civilian and military experts from Estonia and NATO countries and to offer listeners an opportunity for evidence-based discussion on topics related to war and disaster medicine. Participating at the conference gives also opportunity to take part in workshops and meet the industry representatives working in the field.

Estonian Health Board leads crisis management and preparedness in healthcare by analyzing and assessing risks, making plans, and coordinating training and exercises. The War and Disaster Medicine Center of the Estonian Military Academy trains both combat paramedics and civilian medics and focuses on research and development in the field of military and disaster medicine in Estonia.
