Does the WHO act in the interest of Global Public Health? – Toronto

The Consumer Choice Center will host six media roundtables discussing the effectiveness of the World Health Organization (WHO) in September 2018.

We invite journalists, regulators, policy-makers, and civil society to join us for presentations on the WHO’s shortcomings in working towards better global public health and how the WHO actively blocks healthier technologies in the area of harm reduction.

Join us at our event in Toronto, Ontario on September 27th at 11:00 AM at the Albany Club, 91 King St E Toronto, ON.
