Its unique platform combines innovative digital health offerings - including remote care management - with a full suite of high quality in-clinic services. Praava’s model, at once, addresses pandemic preparedness, health resilience to climate change, and NCD mortality.

In an era marked by deepening geopolitical divisions, shifting global alliances, and rising social, economic, and environmental challenges, the question of what leadership should look like has never been more important. This presentation is part of the Albright Institute programming for this year, centered on the theme, "Leadership in a Fragmented World," examining how leadership rooted in empathy, evidence, and action can help us solve our pressing global challenges.
