From Around the School, Trainings and Workshops

You are invited to a special screening of the New Yorker film “Rovina’s Choice,” a harrowing account of a mother’s efforts to save her daughter from sickness and starvation in the wake of the Trump administration’s dismantling of the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID). Rovina Naboi’s devastating story represents the global impact of that decision on the world’s most vulnerable populations, and how it stopped decades of progress combating severe malnutrition and disease.

The screening will be followed by a Q&A with Executive Producer Atul Gawande, who served as the Assistant Administrator for Global Health at the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) until last year.
