International simulation challenge

We’re excited to host the International Simulation Challenge at the University of Derby, United Kingdom,  in May 2024. 

Running for three days, this event is a multifaceted experience that combines elements of emergency crisis management, interdisciplinary collaboration, and strategic decision-making in the context of international health and social care. 

Participants, organised into teams, will navigate through a series of simulated scenarios that mirror real-world challenges faced by healthcare and social care professionals globally – such as a disease outbreak scenario or major incident response exercise. 

The event incorporates a competitive element, with teams vying to demonstrate the most effective and innovative solutions to the simulated challenges. After each simulation, participants engage in debriefing sessions to reflect on their decisions and actions. 

Beyond the simulations, the event provides networking opportunities for participants to connect. 

The event aims to be an engaging and transformative experience, providing a unique platform for participants to develop and showcase their capabilities in tackling complex global challenges in the fields of health and social care.

If your university would like to participate, please complete the expression of interest form no later than 1st April 2024.
