Becoming a certified Global Health Fellow (GHF) requires the completion of at least one community health project. Projects may be sponsored by the GHF program or approved, individually sourced project. Participants are asked to submit a service reflection, identifying how the work they’ve done is connected to public health, had impact on the community, and what their own take-aways were from the project. Below are photos of our fall term projects.
Zine Creation Workshop
At The Global Health Fellows Zine Creation Workshop, Professor Machado from the Department of Latin American, Latino and Caribbean Studies explained the impact of migrant farmworkers in the Upper Valley on our food system. Then, the Fellows created ‘zines to be distributed across campus to raise awareness about the issue in our community.
The workshop was the start of a series of fall community projects that beautifully blended art, education, and advocacy, and service, working towards creating a more informed campus community that stands in solidarity with migrant farmworkers.

Visions for Creative Housing Solutions
Next, GHF traveled to Enfield, NH, to assist Visions for Creative Housing Solutions with much-needed fall yard work and property beautification. Not only did we get out into nature on a beautiful day, the Fellows also got to play with the property’s two goats!

Hixon House
And finally, our students served at Hixon House by preparing home-cooked meals for residents. Hixon House provides shelter for up to 20 unhoused adults, many of whom rely on the community for daily meals. Our group gathered fresh ingredients and cooked together to help support and care for our neighbors.
