WHO. Investing in and protecting the health workforce: progress at RC71; September 2021. “Health and care workers in our Region have been critical in providing quality health services to our people, but we are facing a shortage of skilled workers, and for those who join the workforce, conditions are challenging … Our hope is for the health and care profession to become the dream career for young graduates. For that to happen, we need to up our investment and create working conditions that support the well-being of health workers,” Dr Natasha Azzopardi-Muscat, Director of the Division of Country Health Policies at WHO/Europe; https://www.euro.who.int/en/about-us/governance/regional-committee-for-europe/71st-session/news/news/2021/09/investing-in-and-protecting-the-health-workforce-progress-at-rc71?utm_source=WHO%2FEurope+mailing+list&utm_campaign=94e96cf317-News_highlights_January_2018_COPY_01&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_60241f4736-94e96cf317-110538917
