I’m leaving Berkeley early to hike a short segment of the Appalachian Trail this Memorial Day weekend before next week’s conference. The Global Health Conference starts Tuesday the 27th and runs through Saturday. If any readers will be DC then and want to meet up, drop a line on the comment space below.
There will be two presentations on OBA in East Africa. Tuesday 3-5pm Claus Janisch will talk about the Kenya OBA program for targeted subsidies for antenatal and maternal delivery services. Look for the panel A2: “Getting Creative: Innovative Models for Health Care Financing“.
Thursday 2:30-4:30 Richard Lowe presents the eponymous Uganda OBA program’s “Output-Based Aid Program to Treat Sexually Transmitted Infections in Uganda”. Not sure why it’s currently booked in the “Chronic Disease” roundtable section; it’s scheduled for the Ambassador Ballroom (hotel map). I’ll update this post if the room changes.
Readers may be interested too checking out the Abt Associates’ Private Sector panel scheduled 1-4:30pm Tuesday.
The THDblog is planning to cover the GHC throughout the week and I may cross-post some. Check back for updates.
