ON HEALTH CARE A panel discusses the impact of the American practice of selective funding only for women’s health care and HIV/AIDS programs. Known as the “global gag rule,” the 2001 policy prohibits foreign nongovernmental recipients of American family planning funds from, among other things, promoting or advocating abortion. Panelists include the director of the law and health program at the Open Society Institute, Jonathan Cohen; the faculty director of the Crowley Program in International Human Rights, Martin Flaherty, and a Crowley fellow in international human rights, Mehlika Hoodbhoy. Tracy Higgins of the Fordham University School of Law serves as moderator. Tonight, 6-7:30 p.m., Fordham University School of Law, James B.M. McNally Amphitheatre, 140 W. 62nd St., between Columbus and Amsterdam avenues, 212-636-6862, free.
