The University of Hawaiʻi<\/span> at Hilo<\/a> will be hosting its first graduate student symposium entitled “Integrated Community Design: Health, Environment and Culture” on March 18. The event is free and open to the public.<\/p>\n

The symposium will focus on connections between health, environment and culture in Hilo and their roles in developing practical solutions across vulnerable populations, Hawaiʻi<\/span>’s youth and community-based research.<\/p>\n

Highlights of the symposium include a keynote address by Matthew Nagato (TEDx Talk at right), communications director for the Hawaiʻi<\/span> Primary Care Association<\/a>. Nagato wrote and produced the documentary Ola<\/em><\/a>, which examines the widespread social factors that facilitated Hawaiʻi<\/span>’s healthcare crisis and was an official selection in the 2013 Hawaiʻi<\/span> International Film Festival Spring Showcase.<\/p>\n

“Our graduate students, faculty and community members are well positioned to affect positive change in our community’s health,” says Jonathan Koch<\/strong><\/a>, a postdoctoral researcher from 糖心Vlog官方<\/abbr> Hilo’s tropical conservation biology and environmental science graduate program<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The symposium also will include panel presentations on the three symposium sub-themes, followed by breakout sessions.<\/p>\n
