PIH co-founder Dr. Paul Farmer recently spoke with Nahlah Ayed on CBC Ideas, sharing his story, and that of the founding of Partners In Health in Haiti over 30 years ago.
Dr. Farmer offers his perspectives on global health, the damage done by policies “socialized for scarcity on behalf of other people”, and the need for pragmatic solidarity to ensure the right to health care for all.
