Welcome!
I started this blog in the final years of my undergraduate degree in international development, and the topics I cover have changed according to my interests, although there remains a strong focus on capacity building, new innovations, knowledge translation, international development, public health (and global health in particular), travel, working abroad and water and sanitation among other topics.
I hope you enjoy visiting my blog and that you have learned something new from dropping by. Thanks for reading!

Reach Forward,
My name is Bill Hawthorne, and I represent maacenter.org, a leading web resource for asbestos exposure and mesothelioma cancer information. Our organization is dedicated to increasing awareness of the terrible health consequences of asbestos exposure.
I found your site through a search and decided to contact you because of its high environmental and green presence which is extremely important in our movement. The promotion of how buildings should now be built using sustainable green products to avoid asbestos and mesothelioma as well as the awareness of past buildings and preventative steps in avoiding asbestos exposure are extremely important. My goal is to get a resource link on your site or even to provide a guest posting to be placed.
I look forward to hearing from you. Please feel free to check out our website. Thank you for your time and consideration.
