— Laura Dale-Harris, Executive Director


She holds a Master's in Global and Population Health from Harvard University and an Honours BSc in Global Health from the University of Toronto. Her work has been recognized with an Innovation Award from the Government of Canada for her work on a national vaccination application and an Above and Beyond Award from the World Bank for her work coordinating senior policymakers during the COVID-19 response. 

At Global Treehouse, Seemi Qaiser will help lead our growing work on responsible AI and technology in children’s palliative care, shape our forthcoming international innovation challenge, and strengthen collaborations and digital approaches that help providers learn, improve and scale quality care globally. We are confident that her leadership will significantly enhance our ability to deliver sustainable, high-quality palliative care systems worldwide.

My work has always been grounded in the belief that good technology doesn’t fix broken systems on its own, but the right tools in the right hands can shift what’s possible. That’s what drew me to Global Treehouse, and I’m looking forward to finding where those shifts can happen across children’s palliative care systems.
