UIC Global Health Colloquium - The Power of Faces Exhibit Launch and Panel Session Flyer on April 7 starting a 11 AM in SPHPI Room 132

In observance of World Health Day, please join the UIC SPH Global Health Program for the launch of the weeklong photography exhibit The Power of Faces: A Look at the Global Refugee Crisis as part of the UIC Global Health Colloquium. The launch of the exhibit will include a Q&A with the photographers. This event is free and all are welcome.

The Power of Faces show displaced people with their inherent beauty, courage, dignity, and grace. Importantly, The Power of Faces also captures the on-the-ground, oftentimes harsh reality that refugees face every day in refugee camps across Greece, Bangladesh, Mexico, and the Ukraine border.

The UIC Global Health Colloquium is a lecture series co-sponsored by the School of Public Health, Colleges of Medicine, Nursing, Applied Health Sciences, Pharmacy, Dentistry, and Social Work.
