Questions for Students Prior to Global Health Work (Pinto and Upshur, 2007)
6. Where are the weaknesses of your plan, specifically?
7. Is the work feasible, cost-effective, necessary, focused and justified?
8. Will it work to undermine disparity, or actually contribute to it? Will there be a net benefit to the community?
9. What do you hope to bring back to your community, and whom will you share it with?
Is you work sustainable, and if not, will this leave a negative impact?

Questions for Students Prior to Global Health Work (Pinto and Upshur, 2007)
1. Why do you hope to do this work? 2.What are your objectives, both personal and
structural, short and long-term? 3. What are the benefits and who will receive
them, and what are the costs and who will bear them?
4. In the context of very limited resources for global health needs, is your elective justified? What exists close-by?
5. What do you need to do to prepare for your elective, both practical and personal?
