SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Seminar with Mayssa Rekhis | Global Health and Borders: Heath\, Migration and Social Justice
DESCRIPTION:The Center for Global Health Equity is pleased to present the first of our seminar speakers for the 2024-2025 academic year: Mayssa Rekhis\, Lecturer\, School of Public Health and Community Medicine\, University of Gothenburg (Sweden). Rekhis will be presenting her work exploring the intersection of migration\, global health\, & social justice. \n\n--\nThis presentation is co-sponsored by the Office of Global Public Health and the Department of Anthropology\n\nJoin us for a structured conversation with Mayssa Rekhis\, M.D\, Ph.D.\, facilitated by Scott Stonington\, M.D\, Ph.D.\, on navigating the fields of medicine and global health across continents and disciplines\, moving in between practices and theories\, activism and critique\, centers and peripheries. \nThe conversation will focus on Mayssa’s experiences in many global health sites: hospital wards in Tunis\, human rights activist circles in the Southwest Asian and North African region\, UN and international organizations\, and the European academic approach to research and teaching on borders and migration. We will discuss the borders of “global health” itself\, especially the history of separating sites of practice from the sites of theorization and education. The goal will be to explore how a social justice lens can reshape the very structure of global health as a pursuit. \n \n--\nAbout Mayssa Rekhis\nMayssa Rekhis is a physician (graduated from the University of Tunis el-Manar\, Tunisia) and anthropologist (with a Ph.D from the School of Advanced Studies in Social Sciences EHESS - Paris\, France). She is a researcher\, educator\, and activist\, and works at the intersection of these roles\, with a focus on health\, social justice\, and migration. Since 2022\, she has worked as a lecturer in the School of Public Health and Community Medicine at Gothenburg University\, in Sweden\, where she also directs the Master Program of Global Health.\n \n--\nAbout Scott Stonington\nScott Stonington is a physician (practicing primary care in Ypsilanti and hospital medicine at the VA Ann Arbor Medical Center) and anthropologist at U-M. His research broadly addresses the globalization of biomedical ethics and expertise. His first book\, The Spirit Ambulance\, focused on decision-making at the end of life in Thailand. He is currently working on books on pain management in Thailand and on emotion and improvisation in US clinical medicine.\n\n--\nAbout the Center for Global Health Equity\nThe Center for Global Health Equity at the University of Michigan champions collaborative efforts to address health disparities in low- and middle-income countries. Based at the University of Michigan\, the Center thrives on collaboration\, embracing both interdisciplinary and co-design approaches. By uniting U-M faculty\, staff\, and students with external \nstakeholders\, we amplify our impact on individuals and communities in need.
