NIHAC's February presentation:

Who Rules? Trade Agreements and the Current World Order

by Kevin Danaher of Global Exchange

Thursday February 19, 2004, 7 PM*
Room T-639 in the UW Health Sciences Building**

Described by The New York Times as the "Paul Revere of globalization's
woes," Kevin Danaher is an exceptionally dynamic speaker. As Global
Exchange's co-founder and Director of Public Education, Dr. Danaher has
spoken at universities and for community organizations throughout the U.S.
He has hosted a monthly radio show on international affairs for KPFA in
Berkeley, California, and he conducts workshops on globalization issues
ranging from food security in Africa to the detrimental effects that
corporate globalization has had on workers and the environment both here
and abroad.

Dr. Danaher believes that a renewed commitment to social justice and human
rights is essential for eliminating terrorism. A longtime critic of the
so-called "free trade" agenda, Danaher explains how the US must work
harder than ever with other countries to reduce poverty and inequality if
we want the cooperation of the world's people in ending terrorism. Dr.
Danaher is also the author and/or editor of 11 books, including his
latest, Democratizing the Global Economy.
