⚠️ LIVE FROM NGOi’s 5th YEAR ANNIVERSARY 🎉 President of @AUB_Lebanon @DrFadloKhuri: “This celebration honors the exceptional work of #NGOi. NGOi plays a crucial role in strengthening #NGOs across the #MENA region, extending its reach to #Egypt 🇪🇬, #Jordan 🇯🇴, #Morocco 🇲🇦, #Tunisia 🇹🇳, #Kuwait 🇰🇼, and #Iraq 🇮🇶. At #AUB, we have consistently emphasized that we can only fulfill our mission if we go beyond the wall of the university to work closely with communities we serve, a role that NGOi has been playing effectively since its establishment.” @POAUB

⚠️ Live from the PrOTeCT Stakeholder Convention 2024! Dr. Shahd Abu Hamad, Public Health Specialist in #Gaza, highlighted findings from a study examining the impact of gunshot-related tibial fractures on the healthcare system and the effectiveness of surgical teams in treating injuries in Gaza. She also highlighted challenges encountered during the study process such as frequent electricity and internet disruptions, under documentation and missing data in hospitals, and difficulties accessing files at the Ministry of Health hindered progress.

⚠️ Live from the PrOTeCT Stakeholder Convention 2024! During the plenary session on "Advancements in Biomedical Engineering for Limb Salvage," @DrMehdiSaeidi, research fellow from the Faculty of Engineering at @imperialcollege (ICL), highlighted the need for both stockpiling critical medical devices and fostering local manufacturing capabilities to address supply shortages during emergencies. Julian Jones, Professor of Biomaterials, Faculty of Engineering at #ICL, representing iProtect, discussed their pioneering work in regenerative medicine, focusing on materials like bioactive glass and 3D-printed constructs designed to promote tissue regeneration and dissolve within the body, ultimately improving limb salvage techniques.

⚠️ Live from the PrOTeCT Stakeholder Convention 2024! During the event, and in the presence of leading global experts from 30+ international organizations at @imperialcollege , Dr. @GhassanAbuSitt1, Director of the Conflict Medicine Program, at AUB GHI launched iPrOTeCT, a groundbreaking initiative addressing the burden of conflict-related traumatic limb injuries in pediatric populations. With collaboration spanning continents, iPrOTeCT focuses on preserving limbs through surgery and technology while enhancing functional outcomes with prosthetics, thus filling a critical research gap in the field. Dr. Ghassan highlighted the prevalence of pediatric limb amputees in the region and announced the imminent initiation of iPrOTeCT in Mosul.

⚠️ Live from the PrOTeCT Stakeholder Convention 2024! Preceding his photography exhibition "Stories of War", @gilesduley, CEO of @Legacy_of_War, challenges the perception of being labeled a war photographer, emphasizing that his work focuses on capturing the impact of war on civilians rather than typical war imagery. He believes his photographs depict love amidst #conflict and asserts that true rehabilitation begins with understanding the individual beyond their injuries. Despite his own injuries, Giles finds strength and purpose, highlighting the significance of self-perception and holistic support for #trauma survivors.
