Answer 1

Interested in public health-

Public health is related to community disease prevention, safety measures for the good health of humans which is essential in this century. More and more disease are evoked and some are self generated due to some or the other negligence which needs to be prevented.

Contribution to HRTP-

Health Research Training Program is needed in India to make poor socio economic people and even others aware of some preventable disease which can be prevented during some seasons in India just with proper hygiene and some basic knowledge about it. Training Program should be dealed with common public to make them understand. Program doesn't always include data collection; verbal conversation, some practical demo and many other things can promote the good health awareness. Both data collection and communication can help the society for good or better health for the community.

In my view local language leaflets, pictorial charts etc to explain the disease and what to do for prevention can be tought.

Even hygiene of food can be demonstrated.

Cleanliness and sanitation can be showed.

And many more.

Internship help-

Many things can be made learn. Even where the place stands u can circulate to the panchayat or the state Minister for the basic needs of public. Doing something for country makes u proud. May be in future it could help country for GDP.
