Hello, my name is Jason Ho. I am in my final year of Global Health specializing in Policy, Management, and Systems and I am excited about graduating in June with my Honours Bachelor of Science. I am passionate about improving healthcare services and delivery by improving how facilities operate. My other interests are seeking to improve healthcare delivery through policy, financing, and funding mechanisms. I participated in our Inaugural World Health Assembly Simulation last year (2023), as the Delegate for Switzerland in Committee C-Universal Health Coverage: Reorienting health systems to primary health care. I am excited to be Chair this year and hope to share and be part of this unique experience with everyone.

Hello everyone, my name is Asiya Ahmed Abdullahi, and I am currently in my last year of study pursuing an HBSc in Global Health. I am particularly interested in the environment’s relation to health worldwide. Food and water are currently being affected in multiple different regions of the earth due to climate change, decreased biodiversity, and water shortages. I hope to work on finding a solution to these environmental related food insecurity through fieldwork and research. I have had the opportunity to learn from and work alongside a non-profit organization called Humanize the Hood. They provide food for homeless Torontonians throughout the year, and winter supplies to get them through Toronto’s harsh winters. I am thrilled and honored to be a part of the 2024 WHA Sim as the vice chair of committee A, where we will be discussing Food Security, Food safety and Sustainable Food Production.
