Highly recommended Global Health virtual program
by: Brian - United StatesProgram: Virtual Global Health PracticumI appreciated the adaptations that were made with CFHI to engage students in global health work during the pandemic. It emphasized aspects of global health that would have likely been overlooked during an in person experience, and really highlighted some of the important foundational work that needs to be done to strengthen communities in the long run.
A valuable experience
by: Manuel - United StatesProgram: Virtual Global Health PracticumI think this Virtual program was amazing. Even though we were not there in person I still feel as though I learned so much and gained so much valuable experience. It was an opportunity I would do again in a heartbeat. The Director Seminars and Roundtable meetings were an amazing learning experience.
Great support and very helpful content
by: Sondre - United StatesProgram: Virtual Global Health PracticumI think that the combination of self learning and seminars gave me a deeper understanding of global health. I really enjoyed the program. I especially experienced the content. I was able to get involved in the field I am interested in which make me very excited to learn and continue with the deliverables. My preceptor was especially helpful by meeting with me twice a week and guiding me along the entire time.
