Environmental Health in the news

What has been so amazing about the first few days here (work wise) is realizing that an EHO is an EHO, wherever you are. It has been the great leveller on this trip. We battle very similar obstacles in our work, and we are all colleagues - whether we are students, field EHO's, academics or working as an NGO.

I saw these newspaper clippings in the library at Mohambili University (where the EHO diploma training is done). Students have clipped out stories related to environmental health. I remember doing the same thing at Concordia, and, more recently, in the lunchroom at work. Sure the topics may vary a bit, but the work is strikingly similar and the pride in our job is universal.
