Missing populations in global health
Posted in global respiratory health on 15. Jan, 2010
I spent last week in the United Arab Emirates, attending a great conference sponsored by UAE University in Al-Ain to raise awareness of global health problems in the Middle East and neighboring Asia, and to draw attention to the region and its populations and health problems among the global health community.
As a result, I’ve been thinking about the scope of attention in global health, and about populations and settings that are, for some reason, out of focus right now; one group in particular came to mind.
Between sessions I wrote a short piece on the topic – It’s up now over at Pulse + Signal.
