However\, they are also trained to see the bigger picture\, examining how healthcare is delivered\, policies are formed and advocated for\, and resources are managed in different cultural and economic contexts. \n\n\n\nLearn More about the Global Child Health Course URL:https://ghicn.org/event/fall-2020-introduction-to-global-child-health-course/ LOCATION:Children’s National Hospital\, 111 Michigan Ave NW\, Washington\, DC\, 20010\, United States END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20200929T050000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20200929T123000 DTSTAMP:20260423T112355 CREATED:20200904T223324Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200904T223326Z UID:2596-1601355600-1601382600@ghicn.org SUMMARY:3rd Annual Children's National - NIAID Virtual Symposium DESCRIPTION:A one day symposium bringing together investigators\, researchers\, and clinicians from National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) and Children’s National Hospital as well as other interested participants from outside institutions\, to discuss the creation\, progress\, and evolution of this first-of-its-kind collaboration between the NIAID at the National Institutes of Health and Children’s National\, a pediatric academic medical center.

This course is designed with a view to improving access to healthcare internationally and advancing the quality of care in both our local and global communities. The program is organized around issues central to global health and draws on the personal experience of our providers. \n\n\n\nAt the GHI at CNH\, we recognize that effective global health care must be both specialized and sustainable\, micro and macro. Students in the Global Health Course are trained to recognize\, diagnose\, and manage illnesses and tropical diseases not seen in the US through case studies and personal expertise. However\, they are also trained to see the bigger picture\, examining how healthcare is delivered\, policies are formed and advocated for\, and resources are managed in different cultural and economic contexts. \n\n\n\nLearn More about the Global Child Health Course URL:https://ghicn.org/event/spring-2020-introduction-to-global-child-health-course/ LOCATION:Children’s National Hospital\, 111 Michigan Ave NW\, Washington\, DC\, 20010\, United States END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20200131T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20200131T133000 DTSTAMP:20260423T112355 CREATED:20200131T211432Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200131T211853Z UID:2262-1580457600-1580477400@ghicn.org SUMMARY:Duke University Conference on Decolonizing Global Health 2020 DESCRIPTION:For anyone interested in global health\, public health\, or diversity training. Livestream the conference at the link below. As described by Duke: \n\n\n\n“Global health as we know it today – in our research\, our practice\, and our programming – is the newest configuration of what was once ‘tropical health’ and ‘colonial medicine’. Yet in most major institutions and organizations today\, global health is practiced in a depoliticized and ahistorical manner. Oppressive roots of global health\, such as colonialism\, slavery\, and racism are often hidden by a focus on interventions that alleviate human suffering. As a result\, many global health practitioners and researchers\, despite good intentions\, perpetuate the very systems of oppression in which colonial medicine was embedded. The conference was borne out of a desire to organize folks (students\, activists\, academics\, practitioners\, researchers) who are passionate about global health but may find themselves at odds with the uncritical and depoliticized nature of its institutions. \n\n\n\nThe mission of the conference is to create a space for students\, academics\, and practitioners to join the rising tide of communities around the globe working to challenge structural violence that stems from historical colonialism and contemporary neo-colonialist practices in global health; and to work toward global health futures that are anti-colonial\, anti-racist\, and non-exploitative.” \n\n\n\nLivestream the conference. \n\n\n\nView more details at the Eventbrite page.

It’s an opportunity for people worldwide to unite in the fight against HIV\, to show support for people living with HIV\, and to commemorate those who have died from an AIDS-related illness. Founded in 1988\, World AIDS Day was the first ever global health day. \nOver 101\,000 people are living with HIV in the UK. Globally\, there are an estimated 36.7 million people who have the virus. Despite the virus only being identified in 1984\, more than 35 million people have died of HIV or AIDS\, making it one of the most destructive pandemics in history. \nToday\, scientific advances have been made in HIV treatment\, there are laws to protect people living with HIV and we understand so much more about the condition. Despite this\, each year in the UK around 5\,000 people are diagnosed with HIV\, people do not know the facts about how to protect themselves and others\, and stigma and discrimination remain a reality for many people living with the condition. \nWorld AIDS Day is important because it reminds the public and government that HIV has not gone away – there is still a vital need to raise money\, increase awareness\, fight prejudice and improve education.

The estimated number of malaria deaths in 2017\, at 435 000\, remained virtually unchanged over the previous year. \n\nUrgent action is needed to get the global response to malaria back on track – and ownership of the challenge lies in the hands of countries most affected by malaria. On World Malaria Day 2019\, WHO joins the RBM Partnership to End Malaria\, the African Union Commission and other partner organizations in promoting “Zero malaria starts with me\,\,” a grassroots campaign that aims to keep malaria high on the political agenda\, mobilize additional resources\, and empower communities to take ownership of malaria prevention and care.

Meaney\, MD MPH\, Associate Professor\, Anesthesia\, Critical Care and Pediatrics at Perelman School of Medicine\, The University of Pennsylvania\, Director\, Center for Global Pediatric Clinical Care \n\n\n\nPublic health measures improve the wellbeing of communities. Vaccination campaigns and the promotion of family planning are two examples. However\, sustainable health initiatives are sparse in low and middle-income countries.  \n\n\n\nIn his lecture\, Peter A. Meaney\, MD MPH examines when public health measures are not enough. He examines the need for acute care services in resource limited settings\, and looks at how health system and population characteristics impact delivery of care. He concludes by illustrating early successes and lessons learned from the Saving Children’s Lives Program.   \n\n\n\nThis lecture was part of Research and Education Week 2016 at Children’s National.

Thomas\, PhD\, Professor\, Health Services Administration; Director\, Maryland Center for Health Equity; PI\, NIH-NIMHD Center of Excellence on Race\, Ethnicity & Health Disparities Research\, School of Public Health University of Maryland \n\n\n\nThere is a growing body of evidence demonstrating unconscious bias has infected healthcare professionals.  \n\n\n\nIn his lecture\, Stephen B. Thomas\, PhD\, asserts the medical community must embrace the ultimate aim of uncovering the social\, cultural\, and environmental factors beyond the medical model affecting communities\, so as to address health disparities successfully.  \n\n\n\nHe generates self-reflection on how issues of racial and ethnic discrimination have plagued healthcare by examining the complexities of the Tuskegee Syphilis Study. He looks at why the study meant to stop after six months lasted for forty years\, and how medical professionals utilized cultural/communal values and beliefs to recruit and retain the cohort of black men.   \n\n\n\nThomas then provides a re-enactment of an interaction between a patient and a doctor from his own healthcare system. He moves on to outlining a framework for addressing health disparities\, in a way that will “take race\, not as a variable to explain away\, but as a variable to put front and center.”  \n\n\n\nThomas closes his lecture by illustrating two examples of how he and others have applied this framework: free dental care with the Mission of Mercy\, and H.A.I.R. – a program to bring healthcare professionals to communities through collaborations with black barbershops.  \n\n\n\n\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=30qnTOA9wgE\n\n\n\n\nThis lecture was part of Research and Education Week 2019 at Children’s National.
