  • Dinan Université De Montréal
    Review of European and Russian Affairs 10 (1), 2016 ISSN 1718-4835 THE SLOW ROAD TO THE SOCIAL INVESTMENT PERSPECTIVE IN THE EUROPEAN UNION Shannon Dinan Université de Montréal Abstract The European Union has no unilateral legislative capacity in the area of social policy. However, the European Commission does play the role of guide by providing a discursive framework and targets for its 28 Member States to meet. Since the late 1990’s, the EU’s ideas on social policy have moved away from the traditional social protection model towards promoting social inclusion, labour activation and investing in children. These new policies represent the social investment perspective, which advocates preparing the population for a knowledge-based economy to increase economic growth and job creation and to break the intergenerational transmission of poverty. The EU began the gradual incorporation of the social investment perspective to its social dimension with the adoption of ten-year strategies. Since 2000, it has continued to set goals and benchmarks as well as offer a forum for Member States to coordinate their social initiatives. Drawing on a series of interviews conducted during a research experience in Brussels as well as official documents, this paper is a descriptive analysis of the recent modifications to the EU’s social dimension. It focuses on the changes created by the Europe 2020 Strategy and the Social Investment Package. By tracing the genesis and evolution of these initiatives, the author identifies four obstacles to social investment in the European Union's social dimension. 2 Review of European and Russian Affairs 10 (1), 2016 Introduction1 The European Union’s (EU) social dimension is a policy area that has been subject to numerous transformations within the more general evolution of the Union.

  • Debrework Zewdie, Former Director of the World Bank Global AIDS Program, and Deputy Executive Director and COO of the Global Fund
    Harvard School of Public Health | Debrework Zewdie, Former Director of the World Bank Global AIDS Program, and Deputy Executive Director and COO of The Global Fund BEVERLY HO: Good afternoon. My name is Beverly Ho. I'm a physician from the Philippines and a candidate for the master of public health in health policy and management here at the Harvard TH Chan School of Public Health. It is my privilege to welcome all of you today and to introduce Dr. Debrework Zewdie. Her 30 year career in strategy, policy implementation, management, and teaching encompasses national, regional, and global levels. Among the many highlights of her career are her innovative and groundbreaking HIV/AIDS program for the World Bank, her co-leadership and management of the organizational restructuring of the Global Fund to fight AIDS, tuberculosis, and malaria in her capacity as its deputy executive director and chief operating officer, and her instrumental role in making the unique structure of UNAIDS a working reality. By pioneering the call for a large scale multi-sectoral response and subsequently providing direct financing to civil society and the private sector, she changed the landscape of HIV/AIDS financing. Dr. Zewdie's passion for women's health also led her to be a co-founder of the Society of Women and AIDS in Africa. She's a sought after lecturer and public speaker in leading academic institutions and mass media outlets, as well as a thought leader, having published in over 100 journals and book chapters on a variety of subjects. Dr. Zewdie obtained her PhD in clinical immunology from the University of London and was Senior MacArthur Fellow at the Harvard Center for Population and Development Studies.

As well as discussion on the international support to Africa, conference sessions addressed a range of specific issues: health and education, conflict resolution and the role of business. One session focused specifically on the New Partnership for Africa’s Development (NEPAD) experience and the role of the EU in support of Africa. The key twin messages to emerge from the conference, presaged in its title, were the vital importance of African leadership in the international effort to support the continent and the need to focus on good governance as the foundation on which to build effective development.

  • Comparison of Two Generations of Wellcozyme Kits
    COMPARISON OF TWO GENERATIONS OF WELLCOZYME KITS Tsehaynesh Messele* and Debrework Zewdie* ABSTRACT: A study to compare the specificity of two generations of Wellcozyme kits was performed using sera obtained from three different groups with different prevalence rates of HIV-1 infection, namely, females with multi-partner sexual contacts (MPSC) with an average HIV prevalence of 20% representing the high risk group, specimens from patients who have been suspected to have been infected with HIV based on clinical diagnosis, and scholarship winners with a prevalence rate of 3.4%. ELISA was performed on 1000 samples from each of the first two groups and 377 samples from the third group using both generation of kits. The percentage of false positivity using the first generation kit was 16.3% (33/202), 5.1% (14/271),36% (9/39) and using the second generation kit, 7.94% (12/151), 0.25% (1/399) and 5.8% (1/19) in MPSC females, suspected AIDS patients and scholarship students respectively. ELISA false positivity was highest in the group with a low HIV sero-prevalence rate. The result of the study, in relation to the specificity of the kits, is presented. Students who have won scholarships to countries that require HIV testing. INTRODUCTION Several screening tests have been developed after the advent of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) and the subsequent isolation of its etiologic agent, now termed the human immuno-deficiency virus (HIV). The virus is an RNA virus which belongs to the lentivirus family (6). The ability to cultivate the virus in vitro using T -lymphocyte has made the antigen available for the different tests used for screening.
