About Elizabeth's elective

In July, 2010, Elizabeth spent one month working with Mayan Medical Aid, an organization that provides primary health care and works to reduce child and maternal mortality in the Atitlan area of Guatemala. Elizabeth’s application demonstrated a heightened sense of the social and cultural aspects of health and health care delivery and a thoughtful reflection on the lessons that she learned and how her experience contributed to her personal and professional development.

91µÎµÎ is located on land which has long served as a site of meeting and exchange amongst Indigenous Peoples, including the Haudenosaunee and Anishinabeg Nations. 91µÎµÎ 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.
