Blog: Searching for Russia's last snow leopards

  Message: Best Buys for Global Health: New OneWorld Perspectives Online Today!  
Hello everyone:  
 
Warren Buffett and Bill Gates' philanthropy--particularly
in the field of global health--made headlines last week.
But the impressive efforts to save lives and improve health
around the world have long been headline-worthy. With
that in mind, OneWorld has just launched the newest edtion
of Perspectives: Best Buys for Global Health.
 
The entire edition is available below and can be found on the Web at:
http://us.oneworld.net/section/us/perspectives/9/globalhealth. 

Be sure to check out the new "Community Space" section, where
you can add your personal insights and impressions on the topic--or
those of your organization. 

We would also appreciate it if you could share this with your networks,
as appropriate. Feel free to copy and paste the short blurb at the bottom
if you like.
Thanks so much, and all the best!
