Global Health Ideas Repository – Submit your ideas!
See the following message from Global Health Alumna Katie Clifford, MPH:
“I’ve been working closely with Professor Muhammad Zaman of the BU biomedical engineering department on the the Global Health Ideas Repository (GHIR) website, a forum that connects educators, innovators, and students from various disciplines interested in tackling global health challenges from an engineering perspective. Through the site, you can submit a challenge, explore submissions, share ideas on solutions, offer expertise advice, and incorporate challenges into curriculum (via projects, homework assignments, exam questions, etc.).
We are currently looking for submissions of global health challenges from those who have been working in the field. We’d love to get thoughts and views on what problems public health practitioners are really facing in the field. I, myself, am an alum of the BUSPH global health concentration, and did my practicum in Haiti in 2011. I returned to campus with a new view on the real public health problems in that region, and would have loved the opportunity to connect with public health-minded engineers on potential solutions to those problems.”
