Quote
I am Miryam, and I am in the tough battle of spreading the little valued work of the veterinarian in Peruvian society and spreading the One health concept in PerĂº.
I have experience since 2012, in a health project, with an emphasis on conservation of the Amazon ecosystems and dry forests.
I am convinced that the training of professionals based on competencies linked to the one health concept is the key to solving future health problems.
