Meet Doug Lau, who works as a Public Health Consultant in Kenya

Doug Lau has kindly agreed to be profiled in our new Careers for Globetrotters series.  We'll be taking a look into the lives and backgrounds of people who are living their dream of working abroad - and find out the steps they took to get there.

Doug Lau didn’t originally plan to specialize in global public health—he majored in international relations—but opportunities led him to a specialty he now loves. He talks to us about being an Aga Khan Foundation fellow, gives us tips for making yourself valuable to a development organization, and why if you’re stood up for a meeting in Tanzania, you should head for the bar!

This special issue is a series of video interviews with Doug. Watch the series of videos below.
