PROGRAM
Welcome <strong>to</strong> Rome!<br />
WELCOME<br />
We are so pleased that you have made the trip <strong>to</strong><br />
Italy <strong>to</strong> be with Young Hadassah International at<br />
our first (of many!) Conference.<br />
We hope you are ready for three fun-filled,<br />
informative and exciting days w<strong>here</strong> you will be<br />
able <strong>to</strong> meet young professionals like yourselves<br />
from around the world including Argentina,<br />
Austria, China, Cuba, France, Germany, Israel,<br />
Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, the United States<br />
and the United Kingdom.<br />
Our hope for you this conference is two-fold:<br />
First, <strong>to</strong> have you leave as an informed and<br />
passionate supporter of Young Hadassah<br />
International and the Hadassah Medical Center,<br />
our world-renowned Nobel Peace Prize nominee<br />
of healing, teaching and research. Second, <strong>to</strong><br />
enjoy each other and the experience of Rome.<br />
As you will see, our agenda for the next three<br />
days provides opportunities for both.<br />
We are inspired by your attendance <strong>here</strong> in Rome<br />
and hope <strong>to</strong> thank you in kind by inspiring you. We<br />
look forward <strong>to</strong> meeting and talking with you<br />
during the conference.<br />
Grazie!<br />
