Global Health Matters Dr. Garry Aslanyan (TDR, a programme at the World Health Organization)

Dialogues is a new series from the Global Health Matters podcast where we bring you interviews featuring fresh perspectives on global health issues. The goal of each Dialogues is to break through the echo chambers that exist in global health through in-depth, thoughtful conversations. 
In this episode of Dialogues, host Garry Aslanyan speaks with Kinari Webb, a medical doctor, public health innovator and thought leader on how human and planetary health are linked. Kinari's journey started at the age of 21 when she worked as a research student in the rainforests of West Kalimantan in Indonesia. Years later, she established a non-profit organization called Health in Harmony. In her book “Guardians of the trees,” Kinari outlines how she and her team developed a novel model that provides health care as an incentive to protect the environment.
