Propose to do with the $20 million
at
Which (WHO) Team would you be interested in leading, and what would you propose to do with the $20 million?
In 1500 characters write about the question attached in the file section and choose one of the WHO teams you would be interested in leading. Next, have a
look at the 12 Teams listed in the question and see which of those aligns with the points you’ve written down. The Team that aligns most with your values,
interests, and long-term goals in the field of healthcare (both academically and professionally) is the Team that you should choose. The purpose of this
question is to ask you to provide personal insight while assessing the causes and issues you value, what aspects of healthcare you’re interested in, what type
of leader you are (and hope to become), and ways you want to make a difference in the world. A key term here is that the project has to be ‘high-impact’,
meaning that its benefits will be felt on a global scale, it will address a current health crisis or need, it will change the state of healthcare or health standards
for the better, etc.
Key elements of an effective proposal to help get you started
1. Project Summary: A brief descriiption of what this project is all about, answering the 5Ws (who, what, when, where, why).
2. Project Descriiption: What the problem, significance, objective, and anticipated outcomes of the project. Emphasize the urgency and severity of the
problem. This also includes a descriiption of long-term project plans. Emphasize the project goal, and what you hope to accomplish by doing it.
3. Budget Explanation: A breakdown of where the money you are given will be divided and a justification for why you need the amount you’re given/asking for.
Answer questions like where would the world get the best return on investment (ROI) from the $20 million and when would you expect to see the
results/return of the money you used?
Sample Solution
If given the opportunity, I would be very interested in leading the World Health Organization’s (WHO) Vaccine Confidence Team. This team works to globally increase public confidence in vaccines and immunization programs by providing access to accurate information and science-based education (Vaccine Confidence Project 2020). The recent Covid-19 pandemic has highlighted how important it is for us all to trust these interventions if we are to make progress against future outbreaks; yet misinformation continues to spread online making this goal increasingly difficult. As such, I believe that with a $20 million budget, my team could have a huge impact on improving vaccine uptake rates worldwide – ultimately helping protect lives and save healthcare costs.
To start with, I would use some of the funds to establish an extensive network of local partners, particularly in countries where vaccine skepticism or fear of side effects is high (Médecins Sans Frontières 2019). This team could then work closely with regional authorities and health bodies within each locality in order to ensure that reliable information about vaccine safety was available through trusted sources. Additionally, we could also invest in digital campaigns featuring medical experts who can explain why vaccinations are necessary as well as addressing any potential concerns people may have (Kata & Clements 2016). Finally, training courses aimed at healthcare workers around the globe should also be provided – equipping them with up-to-date knowledge so they can answer questions confidently when engaging face-to-face with patients.
Overall then, I believe that investing heavily into initiatives like these will help reduce misperceptions among individuals which will ultimately lead to higher public acceptance of vaccination programs going forward.
