Pictures from the kids performing at our Christmas party: Bonno reading poetry; The "Four Super Boys" performing, Keneilwe doing a very dramatic scene, and a bunch of the kids plus my coworker Tinny dancing
The Masters in Public Health program at the Brown School of Social Work at Washington University in St. Louis is offering a course on transdisciplinary problem solving and implementing public health interventions in developing countries. This course takes place in Thanjavur, Tamil Nadu, India over 8 weeks and involves outreach to 3 rural areas- Andipatti, Allakkudi, and Karambayam. Throughout the course we will learn about prevalent public health concerns and develop research-based proposals for future programming, including evaluation plans, to be presented to stakeholders in India. We are partnering with the IKP Center for Technologies in Public Health.
I'm a public health and social work graduate student from Washington University in St. Louis. I'm originally from Oregon and enjoy traveling a great deal.
