The visit is scheduled to include a series of technical meetings and encounters between Jordanian and Syrian health institutions to explore cooperation opportunities in several areas of mutual interest. This aims to contribute to developing health services, promoting integration between the health sectors of both countries, and translating mutual understandings into practical programs that serve the interests of the two brotherly peoples.
