Event Open to Everyone!
Join DCFR’s Young Professionals Committee for our next "Global Insights, Local Results" panel discussion, Dollars, Diseases, and Diplomacy: The Future of Global Health Security. We will take a look at how recent funding shifts and changing international politics are disrupting the traditional global health systems we've relied on since WWII. Come hear from our experts about what these big global changes mean for international security and how they impact us right here at home.
