Josh reiterated the fact that “Africa doesn’t need handouts rather investment in human capital and entrepreneurship.”
Matt Cleary, CEO, Alliance for International Medical Action (ALIMA) shared the innovative work that his organization is doing to reduce Ebola and other infectious disease in Africa. ALIMA, he said, works in collaboration with researchers, doctors, academic centers and other sectors to find innovative solutions to improve health outcomes on the continent. Matt spoke about ALIMA’s recent innovation: CUBE. CUBE is an individual isolation unit for patients of EBOLA and other infectious disease. The idea is to give patients, caregivers, and families to have a safe place to interact with patients. (View the CUBE video at
