If you like kids and the beach, this is a great spot.
Teach kids who have been abandoned and abused how to stay healthy:
safe sex, AIDS prevention, and personal hygiene.
AFRICA
1. Work side-by-side with an African doctor. This is an ideal arrangement: see the breadth of medical problems in both urban and rural practices and have lots of supervision and support.
2. Community Health Education. Prevention is as critical as treatment. Teach about AIDS, sex and reproduction; the prevention of malaria; sanitation; and mother-child care.
ASIA
1. India. We have 3 sites that are great places to start.
- School nurse and prevention education
- Buddhist monastery: tending to health needs of youth
- Village medicine; tending to villagers' needs.
2. Nepal.
95% of the people of Nepal live in the countryside and never see a doctor. Assess need and design health prevention program.
These are volunteer positions, but we also help people into international careers. Applications are accepted on a rolling basis, with no end date.
