A6: The most important qualities you can bring are your flexibility + humility. GH is not about you but about serving and partnering with others to share knowledge & build a better world. Come with an openness to learn where you can be most helpful. #PedsGH2023

A4: @UCLAMCH we are looking for individuals to strengthen our long standing partnerships in Mozambique, Peru, Thailand, Ghana, India, or the Indian Health Service. Lots of great work has already been done by former residents/faculty that can be built upon! #PedsGH2023

A3: Every PGY3 @UCLAMCH has the opportunity to spend one month abroad. Our global health track gives select residents an extra month (2 months total) for their international rotations and a two week GH Module to learn the foundations of GH clinical practice. #PedsGH2023
