The "Break the Cycle" program has been an annual academic event
since 2005, recruiting students from many different disciplines and
departments at different universities across the United States and
the world, to break the cycle of environmental health disparities
at any point. This volume presents the set of "Break the Cycle"
projects that look at the international stage. Environmental
conditions and health disparities are universal and represent a
challenge for our global village. We hope to see many more students
assist with this program in different international settings. The
students are, after all, our future; our work is a preparation for
them to make the world a better place for generations to come.
Poverty, disadvantage, disease and disability are all global
challenges. This global picture has been captured in the Millennium
Development Goals 2015, which came out of the Millennium Summit in
September 2000, the largest gathering of world leaders in history.
We now have the UN Sustainable Development Goals to guide our
efforts for the next couple of decades.
