Join GHEC and INSP April 9 – 11, 2010 as we convene for three full days of sessions that reflect the vibrancy
and variety of Global Health programs through the region – with highlights on the South/South experience in fostering
new collaborative mechanisms. The program analyzes the differences between South/South collaborations and
traditional North/South alliances, examines successes and obstacles to effective functioning of these partnerships
and culls lessons that can be learned and adopted by the North.
