The Intersection of Global Health and Humanitarianism: A Conversation with Lisa Carty

COVID has revealed complex and under-appreciated linkages between pandemic responses and humanitarian interventions. Reflecting on her years of experience in the fields of global public health, humanitarian relief, and international women’s issues, Lisa Carty will discuss the intersection of humanitarian work and global public health. The conversation will cover lessons learned from recent failures in public health and humanitarian crises and how to make interventions more efficient, effective, ethical, and sustainable.

This event is hosted through Georgetown University’s Conversations in Global Health class, which invites global health professionals to Georgetown’s campus to engage in discussions regarding their career paths and expertise. John Monahan guides the structured conversation, and the discussion is open to all Georgetown University faculty, students, and staff.

The Zoom Webinar link and instructions will be sent out to Georgetown faculty, students, and staff who have filled out the RSVP form an hour before the conversation begins. This event will be recorded and a captioned video will be posted after the event date.
