Description: Malaria is a significant health concern in Nigeria, with the country having the highest infection and death rates globally, particularly affecting marginalized communities in "malaria high transmission areas." Ebenezer Adeyemi discusses historical and current factors contributing to these disparities while explaining community created solutions. Students learn the elements of globalization, internationalization, and critical cultural competencies necessary for curriculum design and student engagement to promote the development of citizens capable of engaging globally. 

Learning goals: 1.) Foster curiosity and interest in the world’s cultures, communities, and contexts; 2.) Create connections to global and local complex challenges that impact the shared human experience; 3.) Design and engage/implement cross-cultural experiences connected to content-area programs and the development of global competencies.
