“During my internship with the Foundation of Healthcare Technologies Society, I was a part of the CAMP(Career and Mentorship Program) Initiative. The CAMP initiative was to guide and mentor all public health aspirants through a series of panel discussions. I was a part of the organization and management team. Also, Dr. Ahish Joshi provided me an opportunity to participate as one of the panelists. Being a panelist and a part of the organizing team helped me gain strong communication, leadership, and organizing skills. I am grateful to sir for providing me this platform and making me a part of this foundation”.

“Conceptualising and Organising ‘CAMP’ – Career and Mentorship Program, gave me an opportunity to upskill my strategizing and communication skills. I got an in depth experience of working with a Public Health Organisation – within its deadline to attain its goals. From our everyday work updates, to evolving of the CAMP plan – it’s minute details to full implementation, I must say it was truly ‘first of its kind’ and an insightful experience for me. I’m highly grateful to Dr. Ashish Joshi and his FHTS team for providing a platform for Public Health aspirants like myself to explore the realm of public health to its full lengths. I learnt another crucial skill – Documentation, keeping records including minutes of meeting. To be honest, initially writing frequent emails and constantly updating the team members and being updated to edit and make changes to the plans seemed like a daunting task, but eventually, it became as to why it needs to be done and its importance. Lastly, working in an enthusiastic and zealous team, made the whole process exciting, memorable and indeed, fruitful!”
