Prasangeeka Basnet
INSPIRE Intern
I am Ms. Prasangeeka Basnet, a student currently pursuing Masters of Public Health at Indian Institute of Public Health, Gandhinagar, Gujarat. I have done my previous graduation in the field of Nursing and have volunteered for a year in a locally based NGO which worked for menstrual health and sustainable menstrual products. We might be different in the way we are and the way we live but the divine truth is that we are all one and same. I plan my undertakings thoroughly which helps me to sense the requirements of a situation and act accordingly. I am more open to new approaches and learnings and show initiatives in bringing changes while working as a team. I always would want to learn and unlearn and be able to appreciate the complexities and connect to the issues. While being in this field I feel the experiences are very reflection based and a lot of self-realization processes have been happening. To make oneself believe what doing a great work means, for me it’s to do what you love to do and would love to invest upon.
OPTED LOCATION: DEHRADUN my interests majorly lie upon areas of Child development, Adolescent and youth mental health, also to work upon Gender based issues and how it impacts on mental health. I would like to learn about various barriers, interventions in the field of public health. To know and learn practical realities and challenges faced while advocating concepts at community ground levels. I have an interest to work as an intern in Foundation of Healthcare Technologies (FHTS) Dehradun because I too belong from a hilly region Darjeeling and have spent working as a volunteer there for menstrual health and advocating sustainable menstrual products to the marginalized group of individuals. I had figured a few challenges that were faced while working in a small town where the accessibility, availability and affordability for people living in the hilly regions face and likewise wanted to work upon how similar regions face differences in public health services catered to them and how the interventions are implemented at grass root levels.

Testimonial
The internship included many responsibilities necessary to work on various aspects of a research organization. Each day brought different circumstances and I had opportunities to learn and get involved in. It was a worthwhile experience and I feel that it has prepared me well for my professional career. I will take both negative and positive aspects of internship with me in applying for and analysing future opportunities.
I really enjoyed contributing and teamwork in general. It was a good feeling to know that the work I was doing was important and had a direct or an indirect impact to the population as a whole.
