Send us Fan MailIn this episode, we explore Dr. Tarek Loubani, a Canadian doctor of Palestinian descent who has dedicated his life to providing medical care in some of the world’s most challenging environments. Born in Nahr El Bared, raised in Kuwait, and later relocating with his family to Ontario, Tarek’s journey reflects an unwavering commitment. As the founder of the Glia Project, he has developed innovative, low-cost medical supplies, including a 3D-printed stethoscope, to support impoverished communities in crisis zones.His path has included tremendous trials, such as unjust imprisonment in Egypt, where he endured weeks of harsh detention in 2013, and life-threatening injuries while delivering medical assistance during the Gaza protests in 2018, when he was shot by an Israeli sniper, a day that tragically claimed the lives of 19 other medics. Recently, he was in Gaza, treating the injured amidst the devastation, and has now come to Lebanon, offering his skills without charge to assist those affected in the south and in the Bekaa Valley.Join Ricardo Karam as he delves into Tarek’s inspiring story and the impact of his life-saving work in emergency medicine and global health.في هذه الحلقة، نستعرض مسيرة الدكتور طارق لوباني، الطبيب الكندي من أصول فلسطينية الذي كرّس حياته لتقديم الرعاية الطبية في بعض أصعب البيئات في العالم. وُلِد طارق في مخيم نهر البارد، ونشأ في الكويت، ثم انتقل مع عائلته إلى أونتاريو، كندا، في مسيرة تعكس التزاماً لا يتزعزع. كونه مؤسس مشروع “غليا”، قام طارق بتطوير إمدادات طبية مبتكرة ومنخفضة التكلفة، بما في ذلك سماعة طبية مطبوعة بتقنية 3D، لدعم المجتمعات الفقيرة في مناطق الأزمات.مرّ طارق بتجارب قاسية، منها الاحتجاز غير العادل في مصر حيث قضى أسابيع من الاحتجاز القاسي، عام ٢٠١٣، وتعرضه لإصابة خطيرة خلال تقديمه المساعدة الطبية أثناء الاحتجاجات في غزة عام ٢٠١٨، عندما أصيب برصاص قناص إسرائيلي في يوم مأساوي أودى بحياة ١٩ مسعفاً آخرين. مؤخراً، كان طارق في غزة يعالج المصابين وسط الدمار، وقد جاء الآن إلى لبنان ليقدّم خدماته دون مقابل لمساعدة المتضررين في الجنوب والبقاع.انضموا إلى ريكاردو كرم وهو يستعرض قصة طارق لوباني الملهمة والأثر العميق لعمله المنقذ للحياة في مجال الطب الطارئ والصحة العالمية.#viral #explore #ricardokaram #tarekloubani  #بودكاست
