SUMMARY:A Tale of Two Cities: Dr. Mitch Besser in Conversation with Dr. Howard Hu
DESCRIPTION:The Infectious Disease Epidemiology and Applied Studies (IDEAS) Initiative and the USC Institute on Inequalities in Global Health (IIGH) invite you to a hybrid seminar featuring Dr. Mitch Besser\, Founder of Mothers2Mothers and CEO\, Founder of AgeWell Global. \n\nDr. Besser is a graduate of Harvard Medical School. As an obstetrician and gynecologist\, his professional career was first dedicated to the public health needs of women. In 2001\, Dr. Besser founded mothers2mothers\, an Africa-based\, peer-to-peer support program in which mothers living with HIV are employed to work in health centers and communities\, educating and supporting pregnant women and new mothers with HIV. In the ensuing decade\, the program grew to reach 20% of pregnant women living with HIV globally. \n\nDr. Besser has now launched AgeWell\, a similar peer-to-peer model employing older adults to improve the social well-being and physical health of older persons. AgeWell was successfully piloted in South Africa in 2014 attracting the attention of the World Health Organization. It is now being launched in the U.S. \n\nPlease help us spread the word to interested colleagues\, staff\, and students. \n\nRegister for ZOOM link: April 30 IDEAS Initiative Seminar Registration Link
