Global Health Pursuit

012 | Politics and Health Outcomes | Keith Johnson and Maria Pennella (The Fund for Global Health)


Listen Later

This week I sit down with Keith Johnson and Maria Pennella to discuss an organization called The Fund for Global Health. The fund is a social profit organization that seeks improvement in social indicators rather than gaining monetary profit. They have a business like approach in achieving the greatest possible impact per dollar invested. Keith is the Director of Advocacy while Maria is an advocacy fellow!

During this podcast episode, you'll learn just what the fund for global health is. We speak about whether it truly is necessary to have international experiences to be able to advocate for health improvement programs around the world, why being politically active is so important when you are trying to improve lives of a population rather than a small number of individuals, and what advocacy truly means to Keith and Maria.

Listen until the end to learn how you too can take part in advocating for greater health outcomes in low and middle income countries around the world!
