“Global Public Health Training and Information Exchange: An Inclusive, Bi-directional Approach”
This program represents a joint effort between the Global Health Program at the University of Illinois at Chicago’s School of Public Health and the Instituto Nacional de Salud Pública. The goal is to increase the racial/ethnic and economic diversity of graduate public health students. Students in the program will be matched with a project site based on their interests and qualifications and will be required to participate in two cultural activities in both Cuernavaca and Chicago, which will be approved and facilitated by both institutions, in addition to accessing supplemental Spanish language training.
