Community Health: Widen the Lens

Abstract

The second panel of the Spring 2019 Liam's Legacy will engage global perspectives; however, both panels will highlight the connectedness of local and global community health challenges and innovations. Featured panelists include David Addiss of the Task Force for Global Health, Hope Bussenius of Emory's Urban Health Initiative, and Rihana Nesrudin of Oakhurst Medical Center. Hence, the symposium also explores how professionals from different disciplines and sectors view the concept of "community health" through the specific lenses of the communities--whether here in Atlanta or abroad-- with which they work.
