I have completed 47 health surveys and I am exhausted but it feels good to have been able to talk to every family on the island. I now feel ready to move forward and try to make an action plan and figure out what I can do to help. The troubles and challenges they face are common anywhere such as:
- Income and budgeting
- Family planning
- Jealously
- Over consumption (and the struggle between keeping their traditions and
Western influence and goods)
- Climate change
I’ll be leaving soon for Port Vila (back to the capital) to meet with the other health volunteers and should get a better idea of how to put all the information I gathered to good use. I’ll keep you updated on my projects and workshops.
