Share
An emergency facility for COVID-19 patients.

On 3/25/20, Hunter hosted this online public program.

As the United States continues to record a spike in the number of confirmed new cases of COVID-19, the country faces tremendous challenges and very difficult decisions. Restrictions on freedom of movement and association in the interest of health security have been addressed differently in different countries, with differing results.

This timely virtual discussion addresses the urgent human rights and public policy implications of the global public health crisis.

Jessica Neuwirth​, Rita E. Hauser Director of the Human Rights Program, and ​Shyama Venkateswar​, Director of the Public Policy Program will moderate a panel featuring:

​Jamil Dakwar, ​Director of the Human Rights Program at the ACLU
P​helim Kine​, Director of Research and Investigations at Physicians for Human Rights
Ram Raju​, ​Senior Vice President and Community Health Investment Officer, Northwell Health.

Watch the discussion below.
