On Saturday, His Royal Highness Prince El Hassan bin Talal, President of the Higher Council for Science and Technology, inaugurated the Fourth Conference of Jordanian Women Doctors entitled “Opening Horizons for the Future of Healthcare: Training, Retention, Reform,” held in cooperation with the Royal Colleges of London, Edinburgh, and England, as well as the European Association for the Study of the Liver (EASL).

In his speech, His Highness emphasized the importance of focusing on policy-making and governance in managing the health system, through a health strategy that prioritizes based on policies. He explained the need for one authority to assume the responsibility of managing, monitoring, and planning healthcare financing for both the public and private sectors.

His Highness pointed to the necessity of establishing a central body capable of directing and coordinating within the health sector by reactivating the Higher Health Council, to collectively define health priorities, avoid duplication, and ensure continued progress.

He also highlighted the importance of strengthening integration, interconnectedness, and cooperation among various public health programs through a fund dedicated to crisis monitoring with preventive and proactive measures before crises occur, and with planning for their management.

His Highness underscored the need to diversify sources of financing for the medical sector through developmental endowments (waqf), which the Islamic world needs, to enhance the role of citizens as active partners in decision-making.

He further stressed the importance of including mental health as a priority within the Kingdom’s healthcare agenda, especially in light of the increasing number of people in need of psychological care compared to the limited support allocated to this sector and to community care services.

Regarding the events in Gaza, His Highness noted that the healthcare sector there is witnessing deliberate destruction, alongside the destruction of all means of survival and livelihood in the Strip.

He said: “The Gaza Strip is witnessing every type and form of killing—from the deliberate killing of children, to the intentional destruction of housing and shelters, all the way to genocide. This must not strip us of our ability to think independently, to analyze, and to respond to our responsibilities with wisdom and awareness.”

His Highness added that what is happening in Gaza and the West Bank will not remain confined there, stressing the need for collective joint action and for independent, rational analysis of events.

For his part, President of the University of Jordan, Dr. Nazir Obeidat, affirmed that this gathering is not limited to the exchange of medical sciences, but rather embodies the values of dignity, compassion, and hope upon which medicine is founded. He noted that the academic partnership with the Royal Colleges in the UK represents a bridge of trust and solidarity and opens wider horizons for Jordanian doctors in qualification and excellence.

He emphasized that medicine is a universal science that transcends borders in service of patients and humanity as a whole, since medicine saves lives everywhere. He added that Jordanian women doctors have presented a pioneering model in balancing their humanitarian mission with their family and social responsibilities, becoming role models for future generations.

Meanwhile, President of the Association of Arab Women Doctors, Dr. Maisam Akroush, stated that the conference marks a significant milestone in the healthcare sector’s journey by addressing key scientific and administrative issues including medical advancements, leadership, medical tourism, artificial intelligence, and resilience in crisis response.

She added that holding the conference in Amman—“the capital of Arab vitality and medical progress”—reflects Jordan’s growing role in developing healthcare and empowering women in the medical profession, while reaffirming solidarity with the Palestinian people in Gaza.

The President of the Royal College of Physicians in London, Professor Mumtaz Patel, stressed the need to focus on growth and innovation in the medical sector, as well as on supporting and empowering future generations of doctors by sharing expertise and skills.

Secretary-General of the Association of Arab Women Doctors, Mais Halsa, noted that the participation of Jordanian university students strengthens the conference’s mission, as they are the future generation capable of carrying forward the knowledge and experience of previous generations toward a brighter future.

The conference also paid tribute to the doctors of Gaza, who continue to perform their humanitarian duty despite dire conditions and limited resources, considering their courage a shining example of the noblest meanings of medical duty.
