Program
Rinke van den Brink – a journalist and author with over forty years of experience, including seventeen years as a senior healthcare editor at the NOS – paints a compelling picture of the silent global crisis of antibiotic resistance. The book reveals how vulnerable our healthcare becomes without effective antibiotics: from organ transplants to cancer treatments and even routine surgeries. By interviewing international experts, Van den Brink shows how politics, failing healthcare systems, and inadequate collaboration threaten progress.
What can you expect?
- We will discuss the powerful new book: The Hidden Pandemic (De Sluipende Pandemie)
- An interview and in-depth reflections
- Space for discussion
- Awareness of a global health threat
- And a chance to win a signed book – exclusively for attendees on-site!
Extra motivation to attend in person:
