Global Health Summer Internship Ghana Team 1



Buthaina's Message

Hello everyone! Below is a description of the internship program I will be participating in from June-July this summer!

The internship is a competitive 4-week program in Ghana. The internship offers a unique opportunity to work alongside program leads to perpetuate community development projects between brigades and conduct research initiatives to improve programming.

Those selected will have the opportunity to gain an in-depth look into Global Brigades as a development
organization, to work on global health and development specific projects, to use this experience and
knowledge to fulfill a research project or senior thesis, and to complement academic studies with an
unforgettable on the ground experience in-country.

Interns will choose from a health (Medical, Dental, Community Health Workers) or development (Architecture, Business, Environmental, Human Rights, Microfinance, Public Health, Water) focused internship to participate in, while also working with Program Leads to develop out their own ideas for individual projects—these projects will both help fulfill a programmatic need while allowing the intern to explore a topic or interest of his or her choice.

During the internship, students will participate in a combination of traditional brigading, help conduct
research and evaluation projects, take part in education initiatives, participate in cultural exchange and
community involvement, and will gain a greater understanding of our holistic model.
