Barnard Magazine: Public Forum on Maternal & Child Health
May 12, 2010
"When a woman walks five miles for clean water, she may not realize the impact she has on global health, but members of the Commission on Smart Global Health Policy do. And they believe it’s time for political leaders in the United States to take action and help. U.S. politicians may be focused on health-care reform inside their own borders these days, but the commission believes they should also be thinking globally. Women and children in poor countries need U.S. help to fight diseases and malnutrition, according to a report just released by the commission, which was organized by the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS)."
You can download and listen to the podcast of the event on Barnard's iTunes U channel (please note this link will open in iTunes).
