Summer intern Edima Otto is continuing her DrPH work, and is seeking respondents for a survey, Women in the Global Health Profession in Massachusetts. If you identify as a woman living, working (post-bachelors degree), or in graduate school in Massachusetts in roles such as doctors, nurses, public health experts, researchers, educators, nonprofit professionals, policy advocates, administrators, graduate students, or any other profession related to global health (this includes people who work locally in the US!), please consider helping her out with 10-15 minutes of your time. Feel free to share with others!
And don't forget to contribute your ideas for the DEP Seminars. A few submitted so far include cannabis odor and air quality, managing PFAS at the local level, and the rising cost of household hazardous waste days. Add your suggestions so our DEP colleagues can plan a fantastic program.
Finally, here are a few cold weather materials for your website or social media.
