My Degree, My Country ,My World
Life without an ambition would become meaningless.
So each & everyone should have an ambition. Likewise, my childhood ambition
was to become a doctor. Unfortunately, I couldn’t success my dream & have
selected health promotion degree. Now I am happy to select this degree than any
other degrees. From this I can do a great services for the community. This
degree is different from other degree. Because we have a great opportunity to
get many experience through our field work.
Health promotion leads us to improve our quality of
life. Lot of degrees in Sri Lanka focus to get a good job easily. But our
degree focus not only job also improved our wellbeing. All students who are
following a health promotion should do field work according to the health
promotion principles. It is one of the interesting part of the health
promotion. In our field work, I got lot of experience for my life. How to
facilitate the community, how to deal with them & how to identify
determinant are some of them.
Health promotion is a process & depend on
community base approach. We have ability to work with different typed of
settings such as villages, schools, army camps AG offices & hospitals. In
our field work, firstly we find out health issues & identify the
determinants of above health issues. Then plan different type of interventions
with the community & continue our process while monitoring &
evaluation. Malnutrition among children, overweight among women & men, poor
ECCD practices, tobacco & alcohol usage & family happiness are some of
health issues that we have to cover within two year time period. I get great
satisfaction from these work.
I am able to provide a great services to the
community than being a doctor. So, I am happy to select health promotion &
I am proud of my degree. I am lucky to follow health promotion degree. Finally,
I wish to give my best service to my country as a health promoter.
