Come Hear From Dr. Hadfield- Oct 20th

SID is excited to host an event on Dr. Hadfield's new book on empowerment, public health, and local development! Several IAS 220 students who have read this book will present on it for 10 minutes. Dr Hadfield will then discuss it, relate it to the cultural sensitivity. We will finish with a Q&A. This book helps curb the "White Man's Burden"/savior mentality because it shows the power of letting locals find solutions to their own problems.

If anyone wants to listen to a recent radio interview Dr. Hadfield did based on her book, they may find it here:
