Recalling her work with the Kenya AIDS Vaccine Initiative (#KAVI) in the early 2000s, Dr. Wala speaks of her experience conducting clinical research among discordant couples, sex workers, and men who have sex with men (MSM), and what it meant for public health. Now an acclaimed travel-business entrepreneur, she also related her first international trip to Europe.

At #DDwithMaqC™, leaders and practitioners in the development, global health, impact investing, human rights, and social justice sectors share their stories, journeys, inspirations, and aspirations in life and careers. The unscripted auto-biographical approach allows for deep reflections on lessons and issues. One conversation at a time, one story at a time, we amplify unsung voices and experiences, share solutions, and causes, provide examples and insights that explain and humanize development in a way that helps “us” and “others” to “get it” or “plug-in”, as relevant.
