Executive Director, Shangri La - Doris Duke Foundation

Western States Art Federation (WESTAF) made it to Shangri La Museum of Islamic Art, Culture & Design for a tour and special convening with the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) and National Endowment for the Arts (NEA)! Leaders' voices represented from Humanities councils across the Pacific included Guam, American Samoa, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, and our islands of Hawai‘i. NEH Chair Shelly C. Lowe and NEA Chair María Rosario Jackson joined WESTAF's Board Chair Teniqua Broughton and Christian Gaines with their colleagues for the meaningful dialogue. Shout out to Meleanna Meyer for her wonderful moderating. We are grateful for the partnership and look forward to more collaboration in the months ahead. #Culture #Arts #Humanities #WESTAF #Hawaii Doris Duke Foundation

    Despite investments in biomedical research producing astonishing advances in in the diagnosis and treatment of human illnesses, health outcomes in the United States remain stubbornly below what they should be. We need stronger pathways for incentivizing and applying research to prevent disease and improve health outcomes. The Collective to Strengthen Pathways for Health Research — a joint effort of Doris Duke Foundation, the American Cancer Society, American Heart Association, Burroughs Wellcome Fund, Dana Foundation, The Donaghue Foundation, the Robertson Foundation and Susan G. Komen — seeks to improve prevention and care, and invites the research community to help define an actionable blueprint for progress. What are the research priorities, incentive structures, and missed opportunities for innovation that hold the greatest potential to prevent disease or improve health outcomes from clinical encounters? Together, we will elevate voices and ideas.
