June 3, 2024

Last month the Office of Global Health at the Dornsife School of Public Health introduced their 2024 cohort of Dornsife Global Development Scholars.

The scholars will each spend 3-6 months working with World Vision International on a range of water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) projects.

Host countries include Sierra Leone, Kenya, Honduras, and Guatemala. 

This year's scholars are:

  • Aminata Bangura
  • Basira Iginla
  • Bharath Gowda Govindiah Chandra Mohan
  • Celter Odango
  • Clara Nicole Pittman
  • Emmanuella Owusu-Ampaw
  • Jane Bozsik
  • Paavan Kapadia
  • Pearl Diabene
  • Sandra Paz

Meet the scholars and learn more about their academic interests, professional endeavors, hobbies outside of school, and what they're most looking forward to gain from this experience.


The application for the Dornsife Global Development Scholars Program opens each fall. All Drexel undergraduates and graduates of all majors are eligible and encouraged to apply.
