The World Health Organization (WHO) is a specialized agency of the United Nations (UN), established in 1948, that acts as the governing and coordinating authority for international health. WHO's goal is to build a better and healthier future for people around the world.
Collaboration: SYRI collaborates with the World Health Organization (WHO) on public health initiatives. Key activities include supporting measures to reduce the availability and marketing of alcohol, inspired by successful foreign policies. This collaboration also includes engaging in national and international discussions on the health impacts of alcohol consumption and other risk factors. SYRI scientists also contribute to strategies to remove barriers to health care for migrants.
Another form of cooperation is the participation of WHO representatives in professional events and academic activities associated with the SYRI project, which contributes to the scientific development of researchers and strengthens the links between research and practice.
