Professor
Howard Stein’s global work focuses on understanding the drivers of poverty, inequality, and socioeconomic transformation in the rural parts of Tanzania, where he has surveyed nearly 50 villages in 5 regions of the country. His interests in global health equity align with the Center theme of addressing social and environmental determinants of health. Stein is on the board of a non-governmental organization that coordinates an international initiative to manage the sustainability of the Great Lakes of Africa. Within this work, climate change and health dimensions are a central component.
