Message
This phrase is one of my motivations to never give up, even when it's hard. Global health requires self-sacrifice because efforts can sometimes be slow to give the expected improvement in the health of people. My academic experience at the University of Ryukyus will allow me to learn and improve my skills to better contribute to the health of populations not only in my country Benin, but wherever I have the chance to intervene in the world.
