Empowering Communities in Peru: A Collaborative with Local University Students
Temple PHBB students are partnering with University of Maryland (UMD) PHBB students to work in the small Andean communities of Compone and Combapata bringing educational activities to the elementary and high schools, and the primary health care center.
2022: PHBB travelled to Compone in July-August 2022 and collaborated with UMD student leadership to deliver educational activities on nutrition and self-esteem, and met with leaders at the Universidad Católica de San Antonio Abad del Cusco (UNSAAC) to start developing a partnership between the two institutions.
This project is currently on hold until we secure funding.
