Exploring Student Experiences: Past and Present 07.12.2024 1sa 15dk

Global health is an interdisciplinary field with individuals from many different backgrounds partaking in it. On our orientation day this year, the 2024-2025 cohort spent some time making a collage of what we think of when we think about global health. From that activity and this episode, we learned that although many of us share general ideas about what global health is, it’s also very individual and can mean a lot to many different people. Join us as we talk to current students and recent alumni about their journeys discovering what global health means to them. Follow Us!
