	As a consequence of the recent Ebola outbreak the World Health Organization (WHO) initiated a comprehensive reform "to address all hazards flexibly, rapidly, and responsively", said Dr. Zsuzsanna Jakab, regional director of the World Health Organization's (WHO) Regional Office for Europe, at a lecture she gave at the CEU School of Public Policy on March 4.
	Agnes Doka (MAPP '11) has had an interesting life – one that has taken her to Afghanistan, Ethiopia, Italy, Libya, Pakistan, Uganda, and many other places in Africa, Asia, and the Middle East. There has been a good deal of continuity too. "Wherever I go and whatever I do, it involves communications in some way. That's what I've always been doing," she says.
	"I don't have any answers, but I do have a lot of questions," explained Lena Wimmer, architect and researcher. The questions relate to the rebuilding of Aleppo, a divided city that has suffered enormous destruction, especially since mid-2012. The damage has been especially great in the neighborhoods of the old city where intense fighting has taken place. As Wimmer noted, it is not just the buildings that have been destroyed. So too has a good deal of the trust and goodwill that once existed in Aleppo.
	"I was working in Bosnia when the 2009 UNDP report on social capital [UNDP, National Human Development Report 2009, "The Ties That Bind: Social Capital in Bosnia and Herzegovina," 2009] was published," explains Karla Koutkova (PhD '16).
