Dr. Paul Farmer, a global health pioneer, emphasized the concept of accompaniment in clinical care, focusing on the moral responsibility of caregivers to be present and committed to their patients. His work with Partners In Health institutionalized this model, providing social care for those in need. Farmer's enduring example continues to inspire others to pursue global health work, and his legacy lives on through the everyday work of Partners In Health and the Department of Global Health and Social Medicine at Harvard Medical School.
