Teaching Global Health Equity: Video with Dr. Agnes Binagwaho (University of Global Health Equity)

Dr. Agnes Binagwaho, Vice-Chancellor of the University of Global Health Equity in Rwanda, believes that healthcare is a basic human right, no matter where that human may live. As a practicing pediatrician, she saw babies die when their parents were too poor to access care. The University of Global Health Equity is creating a new healthcare paradigm—one where doctors are culturally sensitive and take a holistic view of a patient’s environment and the social determinants of health.
