The training course combines classroom debate with hands-on learning with
EPES-trained community health teams. EPES invites you to experience the
participatory popular education strategies used during our 28 years of
community action for health and dignity in Chile.  The course will allow you
to get to know Chile from the vantage point of the urban poor and their
fight for the right to health in the context of political transition, health
sector privatization, poverty and profound socio-cultural change.

The course is directed towards public health students and professionals,
educators, church and global mission workers, activists for social justice
and development.

We look forward to an amazing class with students from throughout the region
who are interested in a truly unique learning experience.
