Tonga has a medical emergency on its hands. More than half of the Pacific Islanders there are obese, and one in four lives with diabetes.
To help train the next generation for a diabetes-free future, ‘Amanaki Fo’ou currently has an internship program at BYU-Hawaii, where the student population includes many young people from the indigenous nations of the Pacific. There, interns work with our student mentors to learn about diabetes prevention, develop leadership skills, and promote community health.
