Tomorrow morning at 9:30 AM EST, Bill Gates and President Bill Clinton will address the Senate Foreign Relations Committee to discuss global health. Titled “Building on Success: New Directions on Global Health” the proceedings will likely be streamed live– we’ll post the video for you as soon as it is.

Their written testimonies will apparently be made available here, shortly before or after the hearing.
