Welcome to my blog! I am a Master of Science in Global Health Student at Northwestern University and this blog will walk you through my month long practicum in Bolivia. Join me as I learn about the healthcare system, the Bolivian culture, and utilize the 11 domains of global health (listed below) through my fieldwork. With the world being so vast yet interconnected, I believe that with global health we can learn from each other and hopefully become more unified. And while you’re here, I hope you can learn something too!
11 Domains of Global Health:
- Global Burden of Disease
- Globalization of Health and Healthcare
- Social and Environmental Determinants of Health
- Capacity Strengthening
- Collaboration, Partnering, and Communication
- Ethical Reasoning
- Professional Practice
- Health Equity and Social Justice
- Program Planning
- Strategic Analysis
- Sociocultural and Political Awareness
