Valuable Experience

September 24, 2025by: MCProgram: Community Development Internship Abroad

8

The experience was extremely valuable to understand the healthcare system in Zambia. However, there was much less public health work than expected--only working with patients in the mornings with not enough focus on most severe cases and no public health education. Recommend if interested in healthcare and community building vs public health.

Thank you for 8 weeks of adventure!

For me, getting my dive certification was the most important aspect, but to also obtain academic credits along the way topped it all. The people were amazing and always waved as I walked everyday to the marina and back. Cleaning the beach, my zipline excursions, and to look down as a turtle swims next to me was amazing. I'm going on another internship with Intern Abroad, but this time to Greece. Thanks Intern Abroad for 8 weeks of adventure!
