HOSTED by MSF (Læger uden Grænser), Red Cross, BØRNEfonden & Global Doctors on behalf of Danish Network for Health and Development 

The Danish Network for Health and Development has invited the most important actors that have been involved in the Ebola response to create a forum where relevant knowledge can be shared amongst actors and stakeholders. 

Two main questions will be in focus throughout the seminar:

* What has led to the current state of the response to the Ebola epidemic in West Africa and thoughts/plans on further steps to stop the epidemic? 

* What are lessons learned to prepare for and respond to future large-scale and sustained outbreaks and emergencies

We encourage the audience to come prepared to ask relevant question to panelists to cast as much light as possible on this important issue.
