CFHI Oaxaca & Puerto Escondido Study Abroad 2023

by: Jocelyn Cruz - United StatesProgram: Global Health in Puerto Escondido, Mexico (2 Week Intensive)
10

My global health study abroad program consisted of about 2 months in Oaxaca city, Mexico and two weeks in Puerto Escondido. Not only did I learn more about health problems that affect Mexico but also how to prevent these chronic conditions. I had the opportunity to shadow doctors in clinics and a hospital and was exposed to the different obstacles that many of these clinics faced. More specifically, in Puerto Escondido our main goal was to learn about public health. We were given the opportunity to give presentations to elementary school classes on sexual education and Vector-related illnesses. The children we presented to were excited and willing to learn more. Overall, this study abroad was an amazing experience. Besides the academic part of the study abroad program, the culture in Oaxaca, Mexico is truly one of a kind. I was exposed to calendas (parades), dia de los muertos celebrations, and the beautiful beaches. Oaxacans are extremely respectful and easygoing, always greeting you when you walk by or eating.
