An interdisciplinary approach to observing issues I am passionate about; people's access to food and health services. Finding an intersection where both the environment's health and the public's health can coexist and live sustainability, has lead me to embark on a trip to meet some of the communities, schools, and farms of Nicaragua this Winter! On this trip I would not only help farm lands alongside my team of Cal and SF state students, but in addition I plan on researching how the environment's health and the public's health intersect. I am extremely excited about getting to know the local community, families, and students in Nicaragua; documenting families food insecurities. From team building activities with the local community to service-work project at Alberto Berrios, local organic Cashew farms, to traveling to a local school, I am excited about serving others through education, empowerment, cultural-sensitivity, and most importantly altruistic service.
