Former U.S. President Jimmy Carter Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.), thirty-ninth president of the United States and Nobel laureate, was born Oct. 1, 1924, in the small farming town of Plains, Ga. Some of the Carter administration's significant foreign policy accomplishments included the Panama Canal treaties, the Camp David Accords, the treaty of peace between Egypt and Israel, the SALT II treaty with the Soviet Union, and the establishment of U.S. diplomatic relations with the People's Republic of China. He championed human rights throughout the world. On the domestic side, the administration's achievements included a comprehensive energy program conducted by a new Department of Energy; deregulation in energy, transportation, communications, and finance; major educational programs under a new Department of Education; and major environmental protection legislation, including the Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act. In 1982, in partnership with Emory University, President Carter and his wife, Rosalynn, founded The Carter Center. Actively guided by President and Mrs. Carter, the nonpartisan and nonprofit Center works to resolve conflict, promote democracy, protect human rights, and prevent disease and other afflictions. On Dec. 10, 2002, the Norwegian Nobel Committee awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for 2002 to Mr. Carter "for his decades of untiring effort to find peaceful solutions to international conflicts, to advance democracy and human rights, and to promote economic and social development."

Fighting Disease - Carter Center Health Programs At The Carter Center, we work to build hope in some of the world's most impoverished and forgotten communities. Our Health Programs prevent the suffering of millions of people around the world from diseases often ignored by others. Many of the most severe afflictions are entirely preventable. Yet people living in developing nations die or are disabled because they do not have access to the services they need to treat their illness or avoid infection entirely. Every day our experts show people how they can take steps to transform their own lives.
