SMAART Platform
I call my platform and research ‘SMAART’: Sustainable, Multisectoral, Accessible, Affordable, Reimbursable, Tailored.
The health of the population has many contributing factors. For instance, if someone is not financially independent or not able to afford health solutions, how can they maintain their health?
All my research is built around creating culturally adaptive material that allows communities to modify their behavior while keeping their social circumstances in mind.
