In discussing her work on her master's degree in international planning and nutrition, she recalls her fieldwork experience in Bangladesh and how women were blatantly treated as second class citizens. She then talks about her years in New York working for UNICEF and at a health clinic in Spanish Harlem; and her return to Toronto where she taught a course in public health, wrote policies and worked in community outreach for two years before she was appointed as full-time environmental health promoter for the south Riverdale area of Toronto. She also comments on the competitiveness of the environmental field and how, in many ways, it is now dominated by white middle-class males.Language:EnglishDetailed holdings information: -
