Audio slide show about Summer Institute
We just posted our first-ever audio slide show on the IRI web site.
One of our talented communications interns took all the photos, recorded the interviews and put the whole thing together in iMovie. The production process, as with anything new, didn’t go as smoothly as we had hoped, mainly because of web-related technical glitches we hadn’t anticipated. But our production aide and web team really came through in the end. The final piece fills me with pride. Hope you enjoy it too.

Summer Institute 2008 Kicks Off

Fourteen professionals from nine countries are hard at work learning ways to use climate knowledge to make better decisions for health-care planning and control of climate sensitive diseases such as malaria and meningitis. They are participants of the Summer Institute 2008 on Climate Information for Public Health organized by the IRI, the Center for International Earth Science Information Network (CIESIN) and the Mailman School of Public Health at Columbia University.
