Neurological conditions are one of the biggest health challenges facing the world today — yet access to neurological care remains deeply unequal.
In this episode of One Voice for Neurology, Professor Riadh Gouider, First Vice President of the World Federation of Neurology, Head of Neurology at Razi Hospital in Tunis, and Ambassador for the One Neurology Partnership, shares his perspective on the future of global neurology.
This honest and thought-provoking conversation explores the global shortage of neurologists, inequalities in access to care, the growing burden of stroke and neurological conditions, and why collaboration is essential to improving brain health worldwide.
Professor Gouider discusses:
- Why brain health must become a global public health priority
• The impact of workforce shortages and the challenge of brain drain
• Why improving working conditions, access to equipment and professional opportunities is essential to retaining neurological expertise
• Building networks of care that connect specialists, primary care teams and communities
• How collaboration, teleneurology and shared expertise can expand access to neurological care
• The role of advocacy in changing policy and health priorities
A powerful conversation about building sustainable neurological care systems and creating a future where everyone has access to brain health — because there is no health without brain health.
