Welcome to GSUganda2017!

As we were wrapping up our study abroad course on alcohol & harm in Uganda for which I (Charles) was the course facilitator, I felt I should also write a blog of my experiences and reactions. Most of all, as a Ugandan, I am so very proud of the opportunity to show the students my country. They get to see the finest and most exciting of our country, staying in a luxury safari lodge and seeing exotic animals up close at a national game park. But, they also get to walk through the slums of Kampala and talk to youth at risk for alcohol and harm, hearing their hopes, pain and suffering first hand.
