Карьера [ править ]

In 1983, Dahl first encountered Paul Farmer, the future co-founder of PIH, as an eighteen-year-old volunteer in Haiti.[2] Dahl has served as Executive Director of PIH from 2001-2005, and now chairs the Board of Directors, where the organisation continues to build health care systems and raise standards in global health in remote areas of the world.[3]

Since the development of PIH in 1987, the organisation has expanded its health care services around the planet. Under the leadership of Dahl, PIH is strengthening the public health system for over 800,000 people in Rwanda.[4] Other countries include Malawi, Mexico, Russia, and Lesotho, where PIH works with the countries' respective Ministry of Health to fight diseases in certain rural areas.[4] PIH provides critical health care services through programs for cancer, chronic diseases, cholera, HIV/AIDS, surgery, women's health, child health, community health workers, mental health, and tuberculosis.[4] As of now, PIH works in more than 60 hospital centers around the world, with more than 12,000 colleagues involved.[4]

In 2011, she was named by the Boston Globe as one of the three Bostonians of the Year,[5] along with Paul Farmer and a senior member of Partners in Health, Louise Ivers. This was mainly due to her role in the charity's response to the 2010 Haiti earthquake.[5] She has also been selected by Social Capital Inc. (SCI) as a 2011 SCI Idealist Award recipient, to be given on 30 March 2011.

In 2013, Dahl was a distinguished speaker at the Madeleine Korbel Albright Institute for Global Affairs.
