Recognition of GlobeMed’s impact on campuses and in communities around the world is growing! Recently Taylor Roberts, Co-President of GlobeMed at CU-Boulder, was highlighted in a local Colorado NBC TV broadcast.
The news story was part of NBC 9’s “College Week” segment and discussed how GlobeMed has created a unique opportunity at CU Boulder – and at 32 other universities across the nation – for undergrads to connect their own interests and passions to impactful work in global health.
This story furthers the message that students do not necessarily have to be doctors or nurses to impact global health. Indeed, we need professionals in all sectors and fields who are motivated to advance health equity and social justice. The news feature discussed how Taylor wants to use his architectural engineering degree to design buildings that are needed in the developing world. With stories like Taylor’s and GlobeMed CU-Boulder, students are showcasing that with the right passion and a clear understanding of the needs within global health, everyone can aid in the work going toward global health equity.

You guys deserve to be recognized on a more national scale. But getting publicity locally is a great place to start! Keep up the good work.
