UW is playing a major role in a global health exhibit at the Seattle Center, showcasing the work of more than 30 area organizations at an exhibit at Seattle Center from June 19- Aug. 19.
World Vision donated a mock village that was turned into the Global Health Experience Exhibit in the Next 50 Plaza at Seattle Center featuring the contributions of several UW faculty in the areas of malaria, maternal child health, diabetes, and clean water. The exhibit culminate isn the Pathways to Global Health Activity Tent sponsored by the UW. The tent houses a board game on polio eradication organized by UW with a gaming company in Redmond and staffed by UW student volunteers. There are also several monitors for people to explore 90-second student stories and learn how the students found their pathway to global health.
