2016 GROW Trip

Once again, our GlobeMed chapter is sending a team of interns to our partner organization, ASPAT-PERU, for the summer. The GROW interns will help strategize and work on project development for the upcoming year. This year, a particular focus of ours is to increase transparency to maximize our impact and help ASPAT move closer to sustainable organizational practices.

As a GROW intern, she is looking forward to developing a greater firsthand knowledge of global health and experiencing Peruvian culture! If Ayling could only eat one food for the rest of her life, it would be ‘Pan Mexicano’, and her spirit animal is a bunny.
