Are you planning on adding this information to the "Efforts to increase health" section? It is interesting how you were able to incorporate your Practice Experience organization's work into the article! I am wondering if you have come across any sources that discuss the difficulty of starting a rural health project or the challenges of global health interventions. I think that would be an interesting component to add to add to this same section, especially considering the framework of our class. I would also love to hear more about the impact of these interventions and health systems from the perspective of the people who use these services if at all possible. The introduction of the article makes it clear that improving rural healthcare is a dire need, but I would be interested to hear if the people affected really feel like they are benefitting from these interventions or if they see the quality of their healthcare improving as a result. I think your last sentence about the mother and infant health program is a great start in this direction!

In your first sentence, I would add a hyphen between "non" and "traditional." Ktmodi (talk) 08:45, 2 November 2017 (UTC)

I agree the amount of information about telemedicine is excessive and somewhat biased on the Rural Health wiki page. I like your idea of cutting it down and citing the actual wiki article to it after the first mention if people want more information. With the other examples you were talking about contributing to the article, were you planning on just naming them, giving a little or a big information chunk, or even if there is already a wiki article about these examples just listing them but linking the wiki article just as you did with telemedicine katlcruz (talk)

The first paragraph of the Initiatives section could benefit from the addition of more citations. For the sentences you are adding, do you have a source to reference? Explaining more about what Seed Global Health is could be useful as well. Is it a private non-profit or a public program? If it is private, did any issues arise concerning public-private partnerships? I would love to learn more about how the Peace Corps makes partnerships to enhance its own work. Is there a specific process involved for organization to establish collaborations with the Peace Corps? Are there any initiatives that the Peace Corps is currently working on?

With your Peace Corp article and the initiative section you're editing, I was curious that (if/when) you list the different ways that the Peace Corp volunteers if you’re going to go into details about through what mediums they provide aid to others (aka like the pamphlets that your P.E. org makes) I think a great place to put that would be in Education and languages subsection, or something to consider. Also with the examples of what volunteers do, do you already have or looking for specific examples that fit into the categories already listed in the wiki article or are you hoping to find new ones to start your own categories and contribute to this section even more?
