Health & Development: Hot Spots in Global Health

Event: Public health issues can represent significant obstacles to developing countries. Join us as we explore some of the public health “hot spots” around the world. Panelists will each discuss a different hot spot, including the mortality crisis in Eastern Europe, the health workforce crisis in Southern Africa and the HIV/AIDS crisis among women in South East Asia. We will learn also about some of the solutions being applied at grassroots and institutional levels to combat these crises.
