Thanks to Penn’s collaboration with the Pulitzer Center, we have the honor of virtually hosting Kalpana Jain, an award-winning global health and religion journalist and author. In these COVID-19 pandemic days, Ms. Jain will discuss the crucial role of media and why she has covered public health for more than 20 years for The Times of India. We will learn about the challenge of providing balanced and accurate health coverage when gender and religion are important factors, as with AIDS. With the second-largest population in the world and projected to become the largest within a few years, understanding India’s health system and disparities is critical to our global health knowledge.
