Hello! I am a student currently studying engineering. I am interested in education, healthcare, and sustainability, and I am excited to contribute to the knowledge shared here. Have a great day!

Topics I am Interested In

• Health in Bangladesh

Since I know very little about Bangladesh, I am interested in researching health in this country to learn more. I would be able to improve this article as this stub class article is quite lengthy but lacks a lead, and could use more substantial information for some sections. Also, the writing can be edited to flow better, so I could rewrite and add to this article.

• Poverty in Indonesia

I want to work on this article to learn more about the poverty in Indonesia because I have visited this country a few times. This article is stub class, but of high importance, and contains only two sections with three sources. The information in this article gives statistics about poverty in Indonesia, but lacks content on causes or effects of poverty in Indonesia. I would be able to edit and update the writing already in this article, and then greatly expand it to be a greater resource.

• Health in Laos

This start class article lacks a quality lead and is not fully developed, with disproportionate amounts of information for different sections, and fewer than 10 sources are cited. I would like to expand and edit this article to learn more about this developing country, which I know very little about, and about the quality of health there.

• Malnutrition in India

I would like to rewrite or add information to this start class article because malnutrition is a serious barrier to people’s capabilities, and I want to learn more about issues affecting South or Southeast Asia. The quality of writing in this article is not of a high standard, nor is all the information very specific, and some sections lack citations, so I could improve this article in multiple aspects.
