Global Health at New York University School of Medicine. The Irene Diamond
Foundation provided financial support with the specific aim to make this
document public and to be used by health educators as they see fit. This
initiative is the product of a joint effort among individuals from the following
organizations:
•
New York University: School of Medicine, the Robert F. Wagner Graduate School of
Public Service, the Steinhardt School of Education, the College of Dentistry,
the Law School
• The New York Academy of Medicine
