Our upcoming Health Studies Student Seminar Series will consist of six seminars, focused on the intersection of public health, planetary health, peace, justice and nuclear disarmament with international experts. These seminars will start in late March and take place every third Sunday.
These engaging seminars will provide the opportunity for students in healthcare or health-related programs to join a Nobel Prize winning organization in advocating for human and planetary health, all while making international connections, collaborating with experts, and joining an esteemed cohort of students.
Participation in this program will offer you the chance to develop long-lasting relationships with activists, physicians, global health experts, and fellow students! In addition to these perks, you’ll receive a certificate of achievement to demonstrate your completion of the program!
Since this seminar series is meant to be collaborative and purposeful, available spots are limited. Apply by Sunday, March 12th, 2023 for the opportunity to be a part of this program!
