President Jimmy Carter's post-presidency has been particularly impactful in global health, especially with the nearly complete eradication of Guinea worm disease, which was devastating millions in the 1980s.
Carter’s enduring commitment to public service can be seen in his actions ensuring democracy and human rights across the globe, significantly influencing nations from Nicaragua to Nepal.
Observing the Guinea worm disease's painful effects firsthand in Ghana was a transformative moment for Carter, leading him to advocate for global health initiatives that changed millions of lives.
Carter himself noted that violence against women is the world's biggest problem, highlighting social issues he diligently worked to address through his humanitarian efforts.
