A recent special convening hosted in Jones Day's Chicago Office, Forced Labor in Health Care Supply Chains: What Hospital Leaders Need to Know, focused specifically on health care supply chain issues and how they may interact with forced labor.

    Over the coming months, global leaders will make key decisions about several initiatives to prepare for the next pandemic. What they commit to and how much they will spend, and how well these plans incorporate equity as a principle across all of these initiatives, is in question. Deadlines for civil society to influence these decisions are coming up. There's a Pandemic Fund, a Pandemic Accord, several UN High-Level Meetings, and a Medical Countermeasures, or MCM, platform, which would coordinate country commitments around drugs, vaccines, diagnostics and other equipment for health emergencies.  In our last podcast, we spoke with Chris Collins, President of Friends of the Global Fight Against AIDS, TB and Malaria about all these efforts. He talked about how ultimately these decisions  will build a new architecture for Pandemic Prevention, Preparedness, and Response, or PPPR.  Chris highlighted what the world learned from COVID 19 and from HIV. We were reminded that so many of the successes from 40 years of fighting HIV came directly from community leadership, and a focus on equity.  But it's not clear whether planning for the next pandemic is heeding these lessons. Karrar Karrar, who heads up Health Policy at Save the Children, and Samantha Rick, who leads AVAC's PPPR policy advocacy, have been tracking these efforts closely. They explain exactly what commitments for equity are needed and who needs to hear this advocacy and when.

    Patti Wukovits and Alicia Stillman, two mothers who each lost their young, healthy daughters too soon to a now vaccine-preventable disease, Meningitis B (known as MenB). High school senior Kimberly (Patti's daughter), 17, died one week before her graduation. College sophomore Emily (Alicia's daughter), 19, died just 36 hours after her first symptoms. Both Kimberly and Emily had received the MenACWY vaccine, the MenB vaccine was not yet available to help protect them from MenB.   In 2014, to educate the public about meningococcal meningitis and MenB vaccination, Patti and Alicia each established their own foundations named after their daughters. Both mothers have since joined forces under the Meningitis B Action Project to make sure other parents don't needlessly suffer the same fate.   The objective of the Meningitis B Action Project is to: Empower young adults (and their parents) with information to talk to their healthcare provider about Meningitis B and the vaccine that can help prevent it. Encourage healthcare providers to discuss Meningitis B and the MenB vaccine with their patients. Increase awareness of Meningitis B on high school, college and university campuses Engage policymakers to ensure broader access to the MenB vaccine. :: PODCAST LINKS :: For show notes, guest profiles, photos, blog and more information, visit AmbiguouslyBlind.com and connect on:    Instagram | Facebook | Twitter | Linkedin  Like what we're doing?

The majority report experiencing gender discrimination from their providers, and feel that their concerns are taken less seriously because they're women.

    This conversation with my guest, Elizabeth Brunner, is so much more than talking about kids clothes.  It's about being an advocate for our children, following the strong impulses to create something more in our life and career, conscious parenting and conscious living. Elizabeth is the Founder and CEO of StereoType, a pioneering gender-free kids' fashion brand that aims to break-free from traditional gendered clothing by creating what she coined as "blended fashion" — a mix of girl and boy esthetics that are equal in value and defined by no one. Inspired by her girl-boy twins to start StereoType, Elizabeth would observe her twins who at a young age would often naturally be drawn to wear pieces from each others' closets to create their own unique blended fashion style that authentically represented who they are and how they wanted to dress. From watching her twins dress, Elizabeth was inspired by the way they joyfully broke the rules of traditional dressing and soon realized it was time to unlearn the rules of gendered fashion. She did this by supporting and encouraging her twins to discover their individuality by embracing a blended fashion approach where any piece of clothing could be worn by any child, regardless of gender.Learn more at their website http://www.stereotypekids.com & follow on IG@stereotypekidsofficialTo connect with me, Alana Banana, follow on IG @TheAlanaBananaShow or join the Inspired Grownups Private FB Group. For The Alana Banana Show kids content subscribe to our Youtube Channel or listen to music online wherever you stream your music.

Chris & Stefanie have two daughters - Maddie (9) & Emily Kate (2). In this episode, you will learn how important it is to advocate for your child as well as the benefits of this. The turning point for their family was an ultrasound order from ENT. That ultrasound led to a biopsy and eventually the diagnosis of Stage 4 Metastatic Neuroblastoma. During the journey, they found hope in song lyrics and their community. Last but not least, they talk through the lessons and perspectives they learned along the Childhood Cancer road.

    Psychedelics and other mind-altering substances have been used for thousands of years across the world in religious, spiritual, celebratory, and healing contexts. Despite a half century of a "War on Drugs" in the United States, there has been a recent resurgence in public interest in ending drug prohibition and re-evaluating the roles these substances can play in modern society. What can our several-thousand year history with these substances teach us about how they can be used in a modern society? What legal & cultural frameworks can be used to increase access to these substances, and what are the potential downsides of these frameworks? Ismail Ali works daily developing and implementing the legal and policy strategies that will define the next several decades of psychedelic access, and joins Long Now in an evening of exploring the deep history of psychedelics and what role they can play in our future. Ismail Lourido Ali, JD (he/him or they/them) is the Director of Policy & Advocacy at the Multidisciplinary Association of Psychedelic Studies (MAPS), and has been personally utilizing psychedelics and other substances in celebratory & spiritual contexts for over fifteen years. Ismail works with, is formally affiliated with, or has served in leadership or board roles for numerous organizations in the drug policy reform ecosystem, including Alchemy Community Therapy Center (formerly Sage Institute), Psychedelic Bar Association, Students for Sensible Drug Policy, Chacruna Institute, and the Ayahuasca Defense Fund.

    Dr. Lise Deguire is a psychologist, burn survivor, speaker, and author.  At the age of 4, Lise was severely burned in an accidental yet careless fire caused by her mother.  Lise spent years in the hospital recovering, undergoing multiple reconstructive surgeries, experiencing bullying, and navigating the world in a house run by parents who she describes as outrageously flawed, gifted, and iconoclastic.  In spite of her beginnings and losing 4 family members to suicide,  Lise continually found resilience, becoming a psychologist, mother of two daughters, and disfigurement advocate. In the multiple-award-winning memoir Flashback Girl: Lessons on Resilience from a Burn Survivor, Lise tells her story of survival and shares life lessons that will help us also find the silver linings and resilience we need to come back from the brink.  In conversation with Jay, they discuss her experiences and why she's on a mission to help people find pathways toward resilience and create a paradigm shift around disfigurement.
