I am a public health advocate and women advocate who considered vulnerable group which the knowledge and education is the weapons for the success of any nation in the world, my volunteering role is to educate all levels of the community about public health issues that reflect negatively on their health like FGM (female genital mutilation), child marriage, reproductive health and family planning and other issues like climate change in addition to my role in preventing stigma around AIDS, Mental Health ( psychiatric disorder isn’t a stigma) because in my community there are traditions says this is a stigma and in some cases they relate magic with a psychiatric disorder. The major reason that makes me more interested and passionate about public health (community field) and health education is that I was born in a small village and more than ninety percent of its population is non and low-educated, they don’t have awareness about anything, because this one of my neighbor’s died when she has Epistaxis and people ordered her to raise her head extremely to prevent bleeding. another near example is all the people in my village until now made FGM for their girls and more than 80 % of girls under 18 years old get married and do not complete their education the girl at this small age must have many responsibilities toward her husband and his family can I say like they bought a new maid for them. to be honest with myself it’s a big challenge for me to eliminate all forms of discrimination against women, disabled and special peoples in my country first then the world but I may see that. after my graduation, I hope to apply for a scholarship in the (community)public health field to raise my knowledge and skills in this field and plan to engage with Egyptian laws to set restricted rules and do a close observation of all villages and cities in Egypt in addition to introducing these topics into the educational curricula for primary, preparatory, and secondary students. making a health education clinic in all villages composed of several health professionals and educators who they responsible for the assessment, planning, implementation, and evaluation of all community needs.
