Date & Time
November 3, 2021, 5:00 pm – 7:00 pm
Description
UMBC students, faculty, staff, and alumni: Join a conversation about the challenge of credibly communicating scientifically sound public health information at a time when our society is divided and people invest their trust in different media sources.
Meet local leaders and learn about their work, aspirations, challenges, and how you can get involved. You will have the opportunity to hear from several of these change makers and spend time in small groups interacting with them and other participants.
Change Makers will include:
- Adam Abadir, Director of Communications, Baltimore City Health Department
- Dr. Mohammed Shafeeq Ahmed, President, Howard County General Hospital
- Dr. Vic Madrid, Medical Director, University Health Services, UMBC
- Samantha Smith, Associate Director, Health Promotion, UMBC
- Lydia Walther-Rodriguez, Baltimore Regional Director, Maryland CASA
An RSVP is required as spots in these popular conversations are limited. To RSVP, follow this link.
Because we will meet online, this is a bring-your-own dinner event.
This event is hosted by the University of Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC) Center for Democracy and Civic Life in partnership with the Office of Health Promotion, the Graduate Student Association, and the Resident Student Association.
