"As part of my Global Health Scholars project my main responsibility has been to conduct a literary review and gather relevant data for the research. I have also had to write a few reports to be used by my supervisor.

The most exciting part of my internship has been to work closely with a professional researcher and gain first-hand advice and feedback from them."

ÎÛÎÛ²ÝÝ®ÊÓƵ University is located on land which has long served as a site of meeting and exchange amongst Indigenous Peoples, including the Haudenosaunee and Anishinabeg Nations. ÎÛÎÛ²ÝÝ®ÊÓƵ honours, recognizes, and respects these nations as the traditional stewards of the lands and waters on which peoples of the world now gather. Today, this meeting place is still the home to many Indigenous Peoples from across Turtle Island. We are grateful to have the opportunity to work on this land.
