Picture of Andrea Becerra

"Being in the WSSS program was one of the highlights of my entire Tufts experience. I loved the idea of focusing on water more specifically with experts and less from a policy perspective. As part of our WSSS practicum, my group traveled to al-Walaja in the West Bank to help establish an environmental monitoring program in the local community. We did water sampling, looking for different bacteria in about 50 households, and then we left the equipment there so the community could continue to monitor for their own health and safety. I still can't believe how meaningful that time in my life was, both personally and professionally."

-Andrea Becerra, Master of Arts in Law and Diplomacy '18
