Richer nations still have pockets of disadvantage that require information on maintaining health through hygiene & nutrition and simple steps that help disease prevention are universal.

promotes health related behavioural change thru education, interaction & awareness, research project funded by 'eco-social' tourism - tourists book working holidays to participate in the research bringing diverse expertise to local health problems. As part of the holiday package they get an introduction to scientific research: research design, data collection & basic analysis as well as participate in health workshops, see the sights & meet the locals. All participants in the research program receive a certificate of participation -- a great addition for a cv!
