About the conference
Recent technological advances in healthcare have made the waste management multifarious. Ensuring the safety of patients, healthcare providers, waste handlers and the environs of the healthcare centers is paramount.
This requires a broad landscape ranging from the choice of tools used for providing healthcare services to the community and also ensure safe and scientific disposal of biomedical waste generated during the process.
Tactical planning and out of the box solutions are required to ensure proper disposal of healthcare waste with special emphasis on accountability, sustainability and engineering interventions.
The conference will provide an excellent opportunity for interaction among the vast panorama of academicians, policy makers.
