for folks in qat'ar, etc... --
note that ala alwan, former minister of education from iraq and former director of non-communicable diseases @ WHO, will be moving to head up the Eastern Mediterranean region office of WHO (has coverage on qat'ar, etc...). would be useful to think about setting up a meeting with him whenever he is in Doha for a WHO meeting?
what would success look like? getting medical students at WCMC-Qat'ar plugged into the policy debates on health governance in that region. could focus on diabetes and mental health, etc...
