Project Structure
For those who may be interested in planning similar projects around travel or who are interested in learning about our approach to project management, we offer a glimpse into our planning process.
Overview of Project Timeline
Because it was structured around a trip to Peru, our project had three phases: pre-trip, @ Peru, and post-trip. To maximize our ability to be effective while in Peru, we planned our project activities ahead of time, designating appropriate activities to each phase of the project.
Project Objectives
We created project objectives to clarify our focus and help us determine what research and site visit activities should be prioritized. Our project objectives are as follows:
Our work focuses on describing the health environment, health systems, and accessibility to healthcare in Peru. Through online research and site visits, we explore the various access points to healthcare services in Peru with a focus on public, private, and traditional/indigenous methods of health care delivery . Access, affordability, and quality of service are themes informing our analysis.
Because we are conducting this work through a business school course, a second objective of our project includes an assessment of the strengths and weaknesses of Peru's current systems with attention to areas with business opportunities for growth.
