In observance of World Health Day, please join the UIC School of Public Health’s Global Health Program for a panel session and in conjunction with the launch of the weeklong photography exhibit “The Power of Faces: A Look at the Global Refugee Crisis” as part of the UIC Global Health Colloquium. The panel session features leaders whose work focuses on the health of refugees and migrants. This event will take place in the UIC School of Public Health Room 109. The event is free and all are welcome.
“The Power of Faces” show displaced people with their inherent beauty, courage, dignity and grace. Importantly, “The Power of Faces” also captures the on-the-ground, oftentimes harsh reality that refugees face every day in refugee camps across Greece, Bangladesh, Mexico and the Ukraine border.
The UIC Global Health Colloquium is a lecture series co-sponsored by the colleges of Medicine, Nursing, School of Public Health, Applied Health Sciences, Pharmacy, Dentistry and Social Work.
