Assignment task:
STEGH: short term experiences in global health
Topic: HIV/AIDS in Mexico proposal
This is a proposal. You are designing a program and have to make the case for why it should be funded. Your audience would be a funder such as the Gates Foundation or other major donor. Your proposal should highlight the problem your program will address, make the case for why this problem and place are good choices, and describe in detail how the exchange will happen-not just the on the ground part, but also the preparation and any follow-up activities. Think carefully about who will participate and why, what happens in between exchange visits, the role of local people in it, etc. No one should start writing until they have reread the Melby et al article where they discuss ways of making STEGHs better.
