WATAN and the Ministry of Health to Hold the National Blood Banks Workshop

As part of its ongoing efforts to strengthen Syria’s national health system, WATAN, in collaboration with the Ministry of Health – Blood Banks General Corporation, will hold the National Workshop on Updating the Blood Bank Guidelines and Strengthening Digital Management Systems on Monday, 3 November 2025, in Damascus – Mezzeh.

The workshop will bring together experts, technical staff, and representatives from national health institutions and humanitarian organizations to discuss the development of the national guideline, the emergency procedures manual, and the donor management system. Participants will also review the new digital system for blood bank management and contribute to defining a national roadmap for blood services in Syria.
