We received many wonderful and truly deserving candidates this year. However after much discussion, the nominating committee has decided to present this years Global Citizen Award to:
Lori Diprete Brown, UW-Madison, UW Institute for Global Health.
She exemplifies thinking, teaching and working in our global world. Her work with the campus 4W Women and Well-being initiative is consistent with the UNA Dane County chapter 2019 theme, Women’s Rights are Human Rights. She clearly sees issues of human rights and women’s rights in the larger context of the human condition, e.g access to food, water, health care, education, living in harmony with the environment, all of which are necessary for improved lives across the globe. Lori’s nomination letter conveyed in her advocacy for human rights and women and girls.
Congratulations Lori!
