However, with the world’s population projected to double in over the next fifty years, and water supplies becoming both more scarce and more volatile as a result of global warming, we are likely to face a water crisis so severe it will reshape everything from our governance structures to our modes of economic and agricultural production to our patterns of social interaction. Water will be the axis around which much of public policy revolves. This Tuesday evening series will explore innovative and sustainable solutions for water harvesting, looking at water provision from a new vantage point: via how water sources are changing as a function of global warming and increased population pressures. The implications that these shifts will have for water sourcing and water distribution will also be explored. http://wagner.nyu.edu/podcasts/mp3/11_17_2009_NYUWagner_Water_Series.MP3 Podcast Tue, 17 Nov 2009 18:45:00 EST NYU Wagner Office of no 00:46:45 Water,Culture,Andes,Global Warming http://wagner.nyu.edu/podcasts/mp3/11_16_09IPSA_Innovations_Education.mp3 resented by NYU Wagner's International Public Service Association and the Wagner Education Policy Studies Association Student Groups.

WAGNER HEALTH NETWORK (WHN) serves as an academic, professional and social support to students interested in the fields of health policy, health management, health finance and international health. NYU WAGNER'S HEALTH POLICY AND MANAGEMENT PROGRAM has been recognized as the best in the country. Located in a school of public service rather than in a medical or public health school, the program crosses traditional boundaries, linking management, finance, and policy, and provides students with the cutting-edge concepts and skills needed to shape the future of health policy and management. In the second part of the series, Professor Paul Light will join Professor Billings and other expert panelists in a discussion of the proposed solutions, and how politics and the media have shaped national debate. https://wagner.nyu.edu/podcasts/mp3/10_26_09_Demystifing_US_Healthcare_Reform_Part_2.MP3 Podcast Mon, 26 Oct 2009 18:00:00 EST NYU Wagner Office of no 00:52:13 healthcare,reform https://wagner.nyu.edu/podcasts/mp3/10_22_2009_Green_Revolution.MP3 Presented by the NYU Wagner Health Program, (WHY) World Hunger Year, Food & Water Watch and US Working Group on the Food Crisis Despite the promises of the Green Revolution begun in the 1960s, the number of hungry people in the world has increased to over 1 billion today.

The purpose of this mayoral candidate panel is to create a forum for discussion regarding city policies that directly impact the lives of poor New Yorkers. Too often, election agendas are remiss of any mention about communities living in poverty. The two broad issues covered by the dialogue are education and economic development (e.g. - asset building, wealth creation, and financial empowerment). Questions about these two issues will be taken from the Wagner community a week before the event, which will be then presented by the faculty moderator to the candidates. The goal is not to engage in debates, but rather to foster a discussion among the candidates. Therefore, the candidates will be encouraged respond to one another in a civil manner.

The world has changed in dramatic ways, and it is the most vulnerable who suffer disproportionately from these crises. Refugees endure cuts in their food rations, and humanitarian assistance continues to be underfunded. These crises, however, also provide opportunities - a chance to rethink our business model and the structure and practice of humanitarian aid. Many argue that it is time to end dependency-inducing programs and focus as early and as soon as possible on how to help crisis-affected populations resume their lives and their livelihoods. Dale Buscher discusses our collective thinking about humanitarian aid and how we might progress further on the path of restoring lives, dignity and livelihoods.
