First-year #VandyMPH students Julia Landivar Donato & Joshua Atura joined global public health leaders at the 2024 @UN ECOSOC Youth Forum. Sharing insights on sustainable development & poverty solutions, they masterfully showcased #VandyMed's commitment to a sustainable future.๐
It was inspiring to see enthusiastic and talented young leaders across diverse fields discuss cross cutting issues that impact indicated communities. Poverty, #Nutrition and #Health should influence development strategies.

Top GH professional with a great heart in the person of @HHS_ASGA Loyce Pace. I'm inspired by her humility and sense of awareness of the struggle of the everyday individuals both in low and high incomes, and her efforts to improve the situation. #GlobalHealthEquity
Last week, VUSM hosted @HHS_Global Assistant Secretary Loyce Payce for her David Satcher Lecture, โWhere Equity Has a Seat at the Table; Global Health Diplomacy." We are so grateful for her impactful insights on prioritizing health equity when addressing global health issues!
