Prior to that he worked in the Disaster Risk Reduction and Resilience Unit, Health Security Preparedness Department, WHO Health Emergencies Programme in Geneva playing key roles in advancing WHO’s global leadership in health emergency and disaster risk management (EDRM). As part of his Advisory role, he said “There’s a lot of talk about evidence but for many years Evidence Aid has had an unwavering  commitment to making evidence available that saves lives,  improves health systems, and provides foundations for advancing science and research. Evidence Aid has played vital roles in providing systematic reviews and in the delivery of  guidance, educational resources and workshops to strengthen health emergency and disaster risk management with partners such as WHO, governments and academia. I encourage further investment and partnering with Evidence Aid so that it can maintain and expand its valuable contributions to evidence-based practice, policy and capacity development across health, disaster risk management and research communities.
