Participants engaged in a daylong dialogue regarding the connection between health and social justice both domestically and abroad.  This summit served to develop a network of student leaders in this region who are poised to address the social pathologies of disease both in policy and in everyday practice.  The day consisted of plenary addresses from national and international pioneers and breakout sessions to build advocacy skills or to increase awareness of particular issues.
