CUPID event on reproductive health in emergency settings

The Columbia University Partnership for International Development (CUPID) held one of our Development Dialogues last week on the issue of reproductive health in emergency settings. if interested, please click here to visit the website and download the presentations from the panelists.

I found this to be one of the best panel discussions I have seen in the past two years. The presenters were extremely well-informed, engaging and, most of all, passionate about their work. I was also particularly surprised and pleased to note the composition of the audience - of the 50 or so students and alumni in attendance, around 2/5 were male! That's certainly not typical of events on reproductive health...so it was a pleasant surprise.
