WHO continues its support to health system resilience

This project, at 2.4 million euros, will be implemented by WHO Lebanon, and aims to enhance access to noncommunicable diseases and mental health services at the level of primary health care for vulnerable Syrian refugees and Lebanese communities in Lebanon.

Sufficient supplies of chronic medications will be made available at 440 primary health care centres that participate in the Ministry of Public Health/YMCA programme of chronic medications. At least 30 centres within the Ministry's primary health care network will have fully integrated mental health services with a referral and monitoring system in place. A mental health registry system will also be developed and piloted.
