My name is Charisse Ahmed and I am a fourth-year health education major at the University of Florida, double minoring in health disparities and African studies. From June 1st to August 22nd, I will be studying the barriers to HIV pediatric care in the country with the highest rate of HIV in the world: Swaziland, Southern Africa. Please join me as I embark on this journey of spiritual and personal growth in the Kingdom of Swaziland. Note: this is primarily a retrospective blog.
