Senegal: conference on violence against health-care workers and facilities

Thousands of wounded or sick people die every year in many parts of the world after going without medical care because of armed violence. To raise awareness among governments and within civil society of the problem of violence committed against health-care workers and facilities, the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) has co-organized a conference entitled "Health care in danger: a West African perspective on a major humanitarian problem." The event will take place in Dakar on 30 April in Dakar.
