Family Foundation Posts Webcast of Barnard Summit
A webcast of The Barnard Summit: Women and Health,
a daylong forum on women's health held on the Barnard campus
on April 5, 2003, has been posted on the Kaiser Family Foundation
web site, kaisernetwork.org.
The Summit brought together a distinguished group of 21 panelists,
including top U.S. government policy-makers, influential health
advocates and leading medical specialists and researchers,
who addressed the latest thinking on gender-specific diseases,
changing attitudes toward health care for women and the relevance
of women's health to economic progress in the developing world.
The Kaiser webcast features video from all three panel discussions:
Women's Health: A Current Assessment; Women and Health Care:
A Critical Analysis; and Women and World Health: A Matter
of Survival, as well as full transcripts of the panels. Click

clips are also available on the Barnard Electronic Archive
and Teaching Library's (BEATL) web site, here.
The Kaiser Family Foundation provides timely and non-partisan
information on national health issues to policymakers, the
media, and the general public. To advance that mission, the
Foundation established kaisernetwork.org in November 2000.
Kaisernetwork.org is the premier online resource for timely
and in-depth coverage of health policy news, debates and discussions.
This free and comprehensive multimedia service connects users
to the events, people, information, and research that shape
health policy.
