The Pitt community is invited to attend presentations by the top four teams participating in the 2024 Global Health Case Competition. The 4 teams were selected from 13 teams who presented their videos and Powerpoints for an initial round of screening. The four top teams will give 15 minute presentations in front of a panel of judges responding to the following prompt:

“present a comprehensive strategy to address the need for prosthetics and accompanying rehabilitation for amputees among the refugee populations in Jordan. Teams should consider and demonstrate potential sustainability, including quality and timeliness, an equitable accessibility of their approach. Be sure that strategies demonstrated cultural sensitivity of the refugee population’s particular needs and living situations. The plan should be able to be implemented over three years with a budget of $5 million USD. You will be presenting your proposed strategy to representatives from the Jordanian government and a large private foundation who will select and fund the best proposal. Each team will have the discretion to select the in-country location and health care setting to implement their propose strategy.”
