Webinar: No Return to Normal: Ensuring an Optimized Health Workforce in the Post COVID-19 Recovery

(Webinar January 26, 2021): As we enter 2021, there’s still a long road to recovery from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global health system. Despite many service delivery challenges since March 2020, many innovative adaptations have been made to continue provision of essential services particularly critical for populations receiving lifelong chronic disease treatment, such as persons living with HIV. These changes, which have yielded benefits for both health workers and the clients they serve, introduce new ways of thinking about requirements for operationalizing and optimizing the health workforce.

On January 26, 2021, HRH2030 convened a panel of experts to address this topic during a 90-minute webinar, “No Return to Normal: Ensuring an Optimized Health Workforce in the Post COVID-19 Recovery.” This event included presentations and a discussion from five panelists who shared diverse perspectives, innovations, lessons learned, and solutions to create a ‘new normal’ for the health workforce for 2021 and beyond.
