The University of South Alabama Biomedical Library will be hosting the traveling exhibition, Against the Odds: Making a Difference in Global Health, during the month of November.
The exhibition highlights the role of communities in improving health at home and around the world. It also explores the shared basic needs required for a good quality of life, including nutritious food and clean water, a safe place to live, and affordable health care.
Using historical and contemporary photographs, the exhibit banners tell stories of collaboration between families, scientists, advocates, governments, and international organizations, all taking up the challenge to prevent disease and improve medical care.
This exhibition raises awareness of the sources and effects of health inequalities and invites each of us to join the global campaign for health and human rights. The experiences described constitute a legacy of success, often based on the simplest means. Working together, we can make a world of difference.
