Dr. Heba El Sewedy, The Founder of Ahl Masr Foundation and Ahl Masr Burn Hospital, announced the launch of the Ahl Masr Hospital Forum under the theme “Shaping the Future of Burn Patients.” The landmark event — the first of its kind in Egypt and the Middle East — will take place from November 26 to 27, 2025, with pre-conference workshops on November 25.
Held under the patronage of the Ministry of Health and Population and the Ministry of Social Solidarity, the forum marks a major milestone in the region’s efforts to advance burn care, trauma management, and rehabilitation research.
“A Real Step Toward Changing Reality”
In a heartfelt announcement, Heba El Sewedy expressed deep pride in the initiative, describing the forum as more than just a scientific gathering — a message of hope, innovation, and humanity.
“No one can truly feel the pain of burn patients as much as we do at Ahl Masr, seeing it every single day,” El Sewedy said, adding “That’s why we had to take a real step that changes reality. Today, I am proud that Ahl Masr Burn Hospital is organizing the first regional forum dedicated to shaping the future of burn care — This event is not just a scientific conference — it’s a message”.
Vision to Transform Burn Care
The Ahl Masr Burn Hospital, the first non-profit hospital in Egypt and the Middle East dedicated exclusively to free burn treatment, continues to lead groundbreaking efforts in trauma medicine and humanitarian care.
Through this pioneering forum, the hospital aims to:
