On Wednesday February 11th, the Global Health Fellows Program II (GHFP-II) hosted a public webinar focusing on the importance of diversity and inclusion in global health work through the eyes of our partners, and highlighted their career paths in global health. Unique perspectives came from our panelists, represented by GlobeMed, Global Health Corps, and PYXERA Global. We were joined by about 200 people from around the United States, and even from other countries! We enjoyed fielding your questions during this webinar. We can see from audience feedback that many people gained new insight into the practical importance of diversity and inclusion in global health. Our audience also offered us their reflections on diverse career paths as well. Read this event summary to see what each panelist spoke about.
Webinar moderator and GHFP-II Outreach, Social Media, and Communications Assistant Sylvie Rousseau discusses her perspective on diversity, and what she learned working with the panelists, and from the audience in this blog post. She also shares her responses to some of your comments!
