  Can the global health efforts of Seattle organizations be used to improve public health in our own region? Could promising innovations and strategies to  curb disease in Africa or Asia be used to fight epidemics in King County? Join us with leaders from Seattle health organizations and hear about their efforts to improve public health globally--and locally. Bring your own questions and concerns as we discuss this critical topic with local and global health experts.
