The O’Neill Institute for National and Global Health Law will launch a one-week Summer Program on Global Health Law and Governance (Summer Program) from June 18-22, 2012 at Georgetown University Law Center in Washington, DC. Over a five-day period, the Summer Program will bring together practitioners, policymakers, advocates and leading academics in global health to learn the foundations of global health law and governance. Participants will explore such cutting-edge issues as international trade and health, the International Health Regulations, the Framework Convention on Tobacco Control, health and human rights, non-communicable diseases and the international regulation of food and drugs. The Summer Program will provide an excellent opportunity for professional development and networking in an inter-disciplinary setting, as well as learning about and visiting key Washington institutions such as the World Bank, Pan American Health Organization, and US Congress.
