HAI’s Wendy Johnson to Speak at Town Hall Event April 26

Posted: Mar 17, 2011 · Posted by: Health Alliance International

HAI's Wendy Johnson, MD, MPH will be part of a panel at an upcoming event on April 26th in Seattle's Town Hall. The event, hosted by NPR station KPLU, is called "Can Seattle Save the World? (Poverty, Health and Chocolate)."

Here's the full description of the event:

Seattle is now a leader in global health and the fight against poverty. The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and many other humanitarian groups are located here. Are these organizations succeeding in making the world a better place?

Join KPLU as we explore this question in a lively discussion with smallpox eradicator Bill Foege, PATH President Chris Elias, health activist Wendy Johnson, and Theo Chocolate's Joe Whinney.

The discussion will be moderated by KPLU Humanosphere journalist Tom Paulson, and is co-presented by CityClub.

General Admission tickets are $7 in advance ($10 at the door), and are available through Brown Paper Tickets.
