    Abstract The health and well-being of refugees, internally displaced persons (IDPs), and stateless communities are often at risk due to political, logistical, and security challenges associated with providing adequate and timely medical aid to the deserving groups [1]. These challenges are further exacerbated by the absence of context-appropriate technologies that can aid in diagnosis, management, and treatment of life-threatening illnesses. The health challenges faced by forcibly displaced communities are a product of unique factors ranging from conflict to climate change and are further complicated by the living conditions and the surrounding environment [2]. In these situations, there is a need for technologies that are safe, effective, reliable, unbiased, and appropriate for the cultural and economic context.

    Abstract The global coronavirus pandemic has demonstrated the necessity of engineering approaches, from research and development to rapid prototyping and production, in saving lives all across the world [1]. From personal protective equipment design to vaccine production and distribution, engineering has been the bedrock of an effective global response. However, despite major gains made in the last several decades, there are still millions all across the world, including the vulnerable displaced, who rarely benefit from new developments at the interface of engineering, biology, and health.

    Abstract Reliable, adequate supply of essential items, including quality-assured medicines, is hard to maintain in refugee camps in low- and middle-income countries. Disruption of medicine supply chains delays treatment for displaced persons and drives procurement of poor-quality products, often from unauthorized or unlicensed sellers. This article explains how current strategies and policies disrupt reliable flow of safe medicines to refugee camps and calls on stakeholders to rigorously map medicine supply chains to refugee camps, which would help identify strategies to improve displaced persons' access to quality-assured medicines.
