Exciting Day at the Internship

Hello Everyone!


Today at my internship I had an exciting day working on a really cool project I wanted to share with you all!


Today I got to go with my supervisor, Mama Jeni, to the United Nations Offices in Windhoek for a meeting with a bunch of leaders at UNAIDS and a number of non-profits working on issues related to HIV/AIDS.  After getting to the meeting, I realized that the meeting was for planning for a big conference next week with people from all over Namibia from eight regions to come together.  Luckily I will be able to go to the meeting for one of the days. 


The meeting is being brought together to discuss prevention from Mother to Child strategies and access in the different regions in Namibia and also to review global policies. Today, I was working with my supervisor on finalizing a letter to the ministry of health and then contacting the participants. It was a busy busy exciting day!


I will have more reflections on the event next week.  The First Lady (The Namibian President's Wife) will be speaking at the opening ceremonies. 


Thanks for Reading....Angela
