This Thursday at Change we will be hosting a talk by Adam Taylor of Global to Local<http://www.swedish.org/About/Overview/Mission---Outreach/Global-to-Local>, who will be discussing his work on improving health care in Washington state.
*Global to Local is a project based in SeaTac and Tukwila, WA, that is working to understand if global health approaches that have proven effective overseas could also meet the needs of underserved communities here in our own backyard. Adam Taylor, G2L Project Manager will talk about how the project came to be, the opportunities and challenges associated with adapting developing world strategies to the context of the developed world, and where the project is currently focusing its efforts. There will also be a discussion on how UW students are supporting the project to understand how mobile phones can address some of the barriers that the communities face.* ** *Check out this video <http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hTFz2mFFZcU> for more background on Global to Local.* Please join us for sandwiches, and to learn more about public health in Washington! *What:* Adam Taylor on Global to Local *When:* Thursday, April 28th at noon *Where:* Paul Allen Center, Room 203 -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
