Design a structural intervention outside of the United States to either a) reduce a health problem or b) increase a healthy behavior.

Example response:
1. Describe the specific community you are targeting
My ideal intervention would be targeted towards K-12 students in Mexico’s school system. I am generalizing because I am not fully aware of the current situation in between the various different states within Mexico, I would make sure to remain educated in regards to their relationships with
one another as well as their overall health and well being in order to ensure fair and proper allocation of resources. Ideally, I would wish to target states with higher rates of poverty, chronic illness, and mortality rates.
2. The type of structural level intervention you would use (e.g., availability, acceptability, accessibility).
I would say that availability is my main goal/priority in terms of structure for this intervention. My goal is to expand the availability of resources for those communities whose overall health and well-being are greatly affected by the lack of tools and settings. By measuring our allocation
of resources and ensuring that such resources are consistently being offered, we can ensure that this intervention will provide excellent results in the long-run!
3. What your intervention would look like in practice?
My intervention consists of three different phases, all conducted at different ages/grade levels that best pertain to human development. Given how kids spend a big portion of their time at school, I believe that incorporating my intervention into their curriculum would be the easiest
and most efficient way of making sure every individual has access to such resources. My proposed phases consist of the following:
● Phase #1 (Kinder-3rd grade) –
○ Students will be taught basic/core food identification.
○ Students will be taught the importance and benefits of daily playtime.
● Phase #2 (4th-6th grade) –
○ Students will undergo more interactive learning (similar to myplate.gov).
○ Physical education classes will be implemented into their daily schedules.
○ Students will be offered health and wellness workshops with professional
speakers monthly.
○ Student-led projects and presentations will be encouraged to demonstrate mastery
and establish consistency.
● Phase #3 (7th-12th grade) –
○ Students will be offered a variety of fitness courses that will help them learn
different ways to remain active.
○ Sports programs will begin to be implemented at schools.
○ Students will be offered cooking classes to ensure proper nutrition and safe food
handling.
Considering that the older children may not have gone through such interventions and assuming no previous knowledge, I think that offering workshops that cover some core content from phases #1-3 at no cost to the community will be greatly beneficial.
4. How you would measure success?
A part of my intervention would consist of ensuring consistent medical check-ups, so I believe that results would be reflecting at a more long-term scale. Given how many individuals with Hispanic/Latinx backgrounds are known to develop chronic diseases (e.g. Mexicans being prone
to diabetes), routine testing would help with tracking and it would come to show whether or not
