Allison Cho

Allison Cho is an intern at the Country Support Unit of the World Health Organization (WHO)

As an intern in the Country Support Unit (CSU) of WHO WPRO, I will be responsible for assisting in the stocktaking of WHO reform since the year 2009. This includes the review of all changes made since then, whether technical or administrative, and the assessment of their impact and relevance to WHO’s overall mandate. Specifically, I will be aiming to capture the achievements made and what actions can be further engaged to attain the desired results, while also being able to apply my knowledge of organizational psychology. I hope to learn more about the workings of health administration so I can apply it to my ultimate goal of hospital administration. I look forward to learning about the policies and procedures that go into improving the effectiveness and efficiency of an entity’s contribution to health development. I am extremely grateful that this award has assisted me in my first opportunity to get a hands-on experience in the health administration field, providing me years of sophisticated professional development and personal growth.
