The Borders in Globalization project and The Centre for Global Studies co-host a special Global Talk next week with Dr. Robert Dover, an associate professor of anthropology at the Universidad de Antioquia in Medellín, Colombia.

He has also participated in health-related projects in Cape Town, South Africa, regarding urban space and health, and the social determinants of obesity.

Dear Friends and members of CASC, Gerd Weih died after a short illness a week ago.He was an active member of CASC for many years. Gerd had a long and fruitful life. He healed many people and brought hundreds of babies into o the world.

Gerd volunteered as a doctor in the Contra war zone in Nicaragua and also picked coffee co-op there. He was active in Tools for Peace and just before his death he ordered and started to bag a fresh roast of CASC’s Cafe Simpatico – work that Tm & I will continue.
