Stephen Lewis
"Time to Deliver: Winning the Battle Against Poverty & Disease in the Developing World"
Canadian politician and diplomat Stephen Lewis explores the political, diplomatic and human rights dimensions of the AIDS crisis sweeping Africa. He forces us to think of the contest between human vulnerability and econometrics, sharing staggering statistics for the AIDS epidemic. He asks us what is the test of a decent society?

His talk will be followed by an audience Q & A session and book signing. Mon, Mar 24 at 7 pm, Kenan Auditorium
