"Hugo Chávez, the founder of Venezuela’s ELAM, believed that healthcare was a universal right, and international solidarity was at the center of his politics," young medical student Vanessa Almeida told Venezuelanalysis in our latest interview. Almeida (from Brazil) and fellow student John Chikuike Ogbu (from Nigeria) discuss this internationalist project and the fight to implement healthcare as a human right and not as a commodity. "Chávez dreamed that the ELAM would become an international community, and that is precisely what has been achieved." https://venezuelanalysis.com/interviews/internationalist-doctors-a-conversation-with-vanessa-almeida-and-john-chikuike-ogbu/
