These projects focused on issues from human illness - cancer, malnutrition, infectious disease, and antimicrobial resistance - to societal challenges like tobacco use among youth, civil conflict and migration, and climate change, as well as topics relevant to the development of public health as a field, such as career guidance, competencies, and capacity-building.
