Global health work and training in underserved areas presents unique opportunities to serve and to learn, but also increases exposure to safety risks. The recent Ebola outbreak in West Africa, the Nepal earthquake, and the current refugee crisis in Europe and the Middle East highlight the need to focus on health, safety, and security of those working and training globally.
This webinar by the Consortium of Universities for Global Health includes short presentations from the headquarters and field perspective including important roles and responsibilities within organizations and what are the most pressing issues related to health, safety and security of deploying faculty, students and staff.
