Focal areas for the case study will allow for the following: 1. Documentation of the decision-making process to implement EMTs for the first time in a conflict setting 2. Analysis of the EMTs outputs and outcomes in this unique context; 3. Lessons learned for other future conflict contexts in terms of sustainability, integration with Iraq’s health system, cost of EMTs and issues relating to humanitarian principles and perceptions
