The (In)Security of Global Health Organisers: Professor Juliet Kaarbo and Dr Andrew Neal (Centre for Security Research) and Dr Liz Grant (Director, Global Health Academy) Impulse speakers: Professor Sue Welburn on ‘21st Century Health Insecurities – Panicking over the next Pandemic?’ Dr Luciana Brondi on ‘Zika Virus Global Health Threat and the International Health Regulations.’ Dr Till Bachmann – ‘AMR – the block to achieving the SDGs’ About the event: This is a Centre for Security Research (CeSeR) initiative, funded by the Institute for Academic Development. Our purpose is to build an interdisciplinary network of Edinburgh scholars to promote the sharing of diverse forms of security knowledge across disciplines. This will not be a typical seminar – think of it as a salon or lab. We want to use the time and space to identify common themes and allow organic discussion. The format will include short one-on-one introductions and other innovative forms of interaction, including time and space for informal discussion around coffee and a lunch. We will end with a brief discussion about next steps, which may include an external speaker invitation. The overarching focus of this seminar is on whether and how the current public health security interventions being adopted can inadvertently lead to other negative impacts in society and whether with disease crossing borders there are alternative ways of responding. Registration: Places are limited to ca. 25 participants, please confirm your attendance here to secure your spot: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/the-insecurity-of-global-health-tickets-24833648110.
