The program definitely opened my eyes and made me see things from a different perspective. My highlight was working with Uganda and helping to design programs that will be beneficial. The round table discussions and director seminars were most interesting.

I think this program is wonderful for those who are in the Public Health field. It allows us to learn about things going on in different countries that we do not encounter here. I loved learning about different portions of the world and being able to learn from different directors from different programs.
