Rep. Barbara Lee (D-Calif.) announced Friday that the Oakland-based Public Health Institute will receive $209.5 million in "cooperative agreement" funding from USAID, NBC/Bay City News reports. "The award, nearly twice as large as previous USAID agreements, will go to support the Public Health Institute's role in the Global Health Fellows Program," which "recruits and trains health professionals for placement in Washington, D.C. and abroad to strengthen USAID's public health outreach," the news service writes (9/24).
