"My role is to help set up a health-informatics system at an urgent care clinic in rural Pakistan to better understand the population the clinic is serving and the impact it is making on this population.

The most exciting aspect of my internship has been growing my understanding of the barriers to care and identifying ways I can contribute to mitigate the impact of these barriers on a vulnerable population."

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