Having an opportunity to attend one of the many talks delivered by Dr. Hamisi Kigwangalla, who is a Member of the Tanzanian Parliament and Executive Director of PeerCorps, is usually a memorable experience. This year was no exception. As part of a series of talks on injury prevention in Tanzania during the Nzega Injury Surveillance Project (NISP), this year’s interns had an opportunity to hear about the historical development and modern day challenges facing Tanzania’s health system.
