Martha Gonzalez is a renowned musician, cultural theorist, and artivista whose collaborative methods of artistic expression build community across borders and advance social justice. Her work deeply resonates with IEW’s theme, “Convivencia: The Art of Building Global Community.”

With a unique approach that bridges art and activism, Martha has empowered communities through music as a vehicle for social engagement, memory, and solidarity.

We are pleased to announce a presentation by Nenetzen Saavedra-Lara from the National Institute of Public Health of Mexico (INSP), who will introduce an online course developed through collaboration between INSP and the Center for Health Equity in Latin America at the Celia Scott Weatherhead School of Public Health and Tropical Medicine at Tulane University.
