An Evening with Dr. James Orbinksi

Humanitarian Advocate and Past President of Doctors Without Borders

Keynote Speaker: Dr. James Orbinski is a veteran of many of the world's most disturbing and complex humanitarian emergencies. He accepted the Nobel Peace Prize on behalf of Medecins Sans Frontieres (Doctors Without Borders) in 1999. His presentation explores the nature of humanitarian action in the 21st century and asserts that we all must recognize that those people who have been failed by our systems, are humans with rights, and wishes and needs, who deserve our help and our compassion.
