Abstract

This presentation reviews the integration of various academic aspects of healthcare and career involvements incorporating seemingly diverse areas into a model of humanitarian intervention that is global in scale. We will begin with addressing the diseases of poverty from a global health perspective. Examples and statistical data will then give way to a number of stories about various humanitarian organizations that are as innovative in their approach as they are successful in their outcomes. Inspirational stories as well as practical tools will round out this rich and engaging presentation.
