Nominations Deadline is April 1 for 2nd Annual Jonathan Mann Award
The Global Health Council invites you to submit nominations for The
Jonathan Mann Award for Global Health and Human Rights. This is your
opportunity to nominate an unsung hero - an individual or organiza-
tion - working out in the field as a leading practitioner in health
and human rights. Those working on the grassroots level as well as
those operating at the national or international level are eligible.
The award is intended to be a substantial cash prize, to allow its
recipients a measure of freedom to pursue their work. Jonathan Mann
was a key 20th century figure in the fight against global poverty and
illness. He was a crusader against AIDS and a champion of human
rights. He died tragically in 1998 in the crash of Swissair Flight
111. In memory of his life and work, the Association Francois-Xavier
Bagnoud, Doctors of the World and the Global Health Council, along
with the Mann family, established the Jonathan Mann Award for Global
Health and Human Rights The 2nd Annual Jonathan Mann Award will be
presented at the Awards Banquet on June 16 during the Global Health
Council's 27th Annual Conference June 13-16. For a Mann Award form,
