Rutland Herald — “Tinmouth native wins Fulbright to Bangladesh”
Melendy Krantz, ‘09
The Rutland Herald spoke with Ithaca College graduate Melendy Krantz about winning a Fulbright scholarship and her plans on how to use it. Krantz will travel to Bangladesh, where she will interview midwives seeking training, finding out how the training program could be better-suited to their needs as caregivers. "The training programs require a lot of women to spend time away from their families and it's a Western biomedical approach they're taught," she said. "It's taught in a way that doesn't seem accessible to them and a lot of the time it's taught in a condescending way." Her research will be used in an effort to create training programs that are more conveniently timed as well as more culturally sensitive.
