📢 ¡Conversatorio abierto! 🌆 Efectos socioambientales de la #Gentrificación en Costa Rica: un reto para el #DesarrolloSostenible 🌱 🗓️ 18 junio 2025 🕙 10:00 a.m. CR 🎥 En vivo por ONDA UNED 🔗 forms.office.com/r/DxZp788bv5 Una conversación necesaria para todos en América Latina

This is a really thoughtful piece we published in @plosglobalpublichealth.org, one that is always relevant, but perhaps never more than now: Thinking through abrupt closure in humanitarian assistance: Key ethical considerations in seemingly impossible conditions journals.plos.org/globalpublic...

Read our recent piece on how the abrupt withdrawal of USAID is affecting local organizations on the ground.

When USAID abruptly withdrew, life-saving humanitarian projects collapsed. In the Philippines, the CDP is showing that even in forced closure, it's possible to uphold ethics: preserve trust, stay accountable, prevent harm & sustain Read our piece here: journals.plos.org/globalpublic...

🚨 In our Invited Perspective, @shashikalb.bsky.social & I raise a red flag on how policies + politics fuel othering—labeling some groups as “different” from the majority. We call for action: 💛 Center kindness 👂 Listen + unlearn ✊ Stand up against othering mjgh.library.mcgill.ca/article/view...

We concluded a wonderful class on global health ethics this semester! What a joy to work together on this!

Join us today for an open discussion on hope and health in the current climate

Looking forward to this crucial discussion!

Last week, the global health ethics&equity class wrapped up w/ compelling student prezs on addressing funding crisis and a wholesome convo w/ students on pathways forward in #globalhealth! Grateful to @isabelmunoz.bsky.social for being an amazing TA! 🙏 @madhupai.bsky.social for all his support!

Inspired by Sydney Murray, a student of my #globalhealth ethics class whose journalistic initiative led to a podcast with Sridhar Venkatapuram for McGill International Review Listen here: Part 1: open.spotify.com/episode/6KBa... Part 2: open.spotify.com/episode/5kNs... A very enjoyable listen!

Always a learning experience to conduct and attend these workshops with amazing colleagues!

Who gets to shape global health? Publishing costs & exclusionary systems keep critical voices out. The Journal of Community Systems for Health is changing that. Listen Here: bit.ly/CCS_E77 @seyeabimbola.bsky.social @madhupai.bsky.social @shashikalb.bsky.social @sclagency.bsky.social

Artículo en el periódico La República sobre el rol que el gobierno de Costa Rica debería tomar para proteger a sus ciudadanos de la gentrificación ¿Existe realmente el 'pura vida' si los costarricenses no pueden costearse la vida en el país? www.larepublica.net/noticia/la-g...

La gentrificación en América Latina (y en muchas otras partes del mundo) es un problema que no podemos seguir ignorando. Basado en: speakingofmedicine.plos.org/2025/01/23/w...

We Need to Consider Gentrification a Global Health Issue In this blog I call for greater attention from the global health community to consider gentrification's impact on health. t.co/qlY0Gwummm

Thank you @plosglobalpublichealth.org for giving me the opportunity to highlight this important issue. The lack of engagement from the global health field in addressing gentrification highlights an urgent need for interdisciplinary approaches that bridge policy, research, and community action

#Gentrification "...If it isn’t prioritized on the #GlobalHealthAgenda, we risk stalling progress in equitable health access and overlooking the well-being of vulnerable communities in many regions around the globe." @isabelmunoz.bsky.social speakingofmedicine.plos.org/2025/01/23/w...

For the sake of our world's health, I hope all countries will support WHO and their vital work

Today marks 25 years since @msf.ca received the Nobel Peace Prize. "Our action & our voice are acts of indignation, a refusal to accept an active or passive assault on the other." True then, true more than ever today. #AidSky #MedSky #IDSky

A great episode that forces one to reckon with our role in global health and development The development field often neglects health, but @themrise.bsky.social reminds us that health is everywhere and both fields have more in common than what they assume open.spotify.com/episode/2jOb...

Latin America is a leader in nonprofit open-access journals. But it struggles to give them global visibility www.science.org/content/arti...

💡What do communities value when humanitarian organizations close their projects? We collaborated with Manila-based Center for Disaster Preparedness and local civil society organizations to create a guidance note informed by qualitative research with community members cdp.org.ph/_files/ugd/7...

My research focuses in global health ethics and equity. Particularly looking at the role of humanitarian organizations and its long-term impact on affected communities, social determinants of health, and local systems and structures. I will be using this platform to share my research and advocacy
