About Laetisha Azzahra Witoyo
Hi! I'm Laetisha, a medical student at UCL, currently studying global health for my intercalating year. In specific, I take interest in understanding how healthcare gets from labs to communities and what becomes the barrier between people and access to this care. Healthcare should be a human right shared by all, but, unfortunately, this isn't the case in many communities, whether it be in a developed country or a developing one. I'm so grateful to have had the opportunity to be involved in the Kasiisi Project (KP) in Uganda this summer, which also helped me understand what it is that these communities need in order to establish a path towards healthcare.

Some Thoughts After 6 Weeks in Uganda (LiA reflection essay)
In this essay, I touch on the themes of leadership and expand on other important thoughts that were scattered throughout my time in Uganda, working with the Kibale Forest Schools Program (KFSP) or Kasiisi Project (KP), which I am so grateful to have been involved in.
