Exhibit: Against the Odds: Making a Difference in Global Health.
The Bio-Medical Library will be hosting the National Library of Medicine Exhibit, 'Against the Odds: Making a Difference in Global Health.'
This traveling exhibit highlights the role of communities in improving health at home and around the world. The exhibition explores the shared basic needs required for a good quality of life, including nutritious food and clean water, a safe place to live, and affordable health care.
Using historical and contemporary photographs, the banners tell stories of collaboration between families, scientists, advocates, governments, and international organizations, all taking up the challenge to prevent disease and improve medical care.
This exhibition raises awareness of the sources and effects of health inequalities and invites each of us to join the global campaign for health and human rights.
