A buffet dinner will b e served followed by a silent auction to raise funds for medical students participating in the International Education Program.\nThe Global Health I nitiative (GHI) was founded in 2000 by Boonshoft School of Medicine first- year students. GHI's mission is to enhance the education of WSU medical st udents by facilitating their exposure to both the medical issues facing pe ople in other countries and the medical issues of persons in this country who have immigrated from other countries\, and in so doing\, inspire great er compassion\, social justice and empathy within WSU's future physicians. \nThe annual Global Health Initiative Symposium brings distinguished speak ers to share their perspectives on international health issues and raises funds to assist medical students in traveling to underdeveloped countries. Most of the money raised goes to fourth year students in the medical scho ol's International Education Program\, who are required to complete a rota tion abroad. Participation in national and international medical aid\, res earch and cultural experiences helps these future doctors gain a better un derstanding of the global nature of medicine and public health.  The hope is that\, by creating a more experienced health care team\, medical care d elivery and health outcomes will improve throughout the world.\nEvent Webp age: http://medicine.wright.edu/student-life/student-organizations/global- health-initiative-symposium DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20160404T180000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20160404T203000 LAST-MODIFIED:20160308T232906Z LOCATION:Nutter Center Berry Room SUMMARY:Global Health Initiative Symposium & Dinner: Global Is Local URL;TYPE=URI:/events/global-health-initiative-symposi um-dinner-global-local END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
