About this listen

 This volume in a series of world history case studies celebrates the remarkable career of Miriam K. Were, a physician and public health official from Kenya, who was nominated for the Nobel Prize in 2022. A Quaker woman who has dedicated her life to providing health care and dignity to the world’s most vulnerable, Were’s community-focused efforts have saved millions of lives. Working for UNICEF and the World Health Organization (WHO) in Ethiopia in the 1980s and 1990s, she fought to defend reproductive rights for women and improve children’s nutrition. In the 1990s, Were led Kenya’s effort to combat HIV / AIDS, while battling prejudice and poverty, chauvinism and corruption.
