Think about the PERU project to date. You have completed the Needs Assessment and Prioritization phase and are now moving into the Intervention Development phase. Using your INDIVIDUAL priority identification work from GHSP Assignment 3, respond to the following questions to begin the planning activity.

3. What are your goals for the program/intervention? (2 points)

4. What type(s) of intervention(s) is/are needed? (2 points)

5. Where should this intervention take place? (2 points)

Next, do a bit of research to discover 1 evidence-based intervention that will be responsive to the planning context you identified above. Consider global health agencies you are familiar with (WHO, other UN agencies, NGOs that specialize in your topic, other global public health actors like CDC, etc)
