This episode launches Season 5 of Global Health Matters, which will explore the future of global health. In a time of turbulence, transition and transformation, we need diverse voices to help shape what comes next. In this episode, host Garry Aslanyan speaks with two thought leaders: Paola Abril Campos Rivera, Research Professor of health policy at Tecnológico de Monterrey in Mexico, and Catherine Kyobutungi, Executive Director of the African Population and Health Research Center in Kenya. Together, they explore how global health is being reshaped amid shifting geopolitics, declining aid and the rapid rise of new technologies.
