in a session where an interactive survey was administered to capture feedback on theeducational areas identified for future projects. Participants were asked to provide their input,suggest additional areas of need, and rank the proposed educational initiatives on a scale from 1to 5, with 1 being the highest priority. Study results indicated that the most critical needidentified by CJC participants was higher education and scholarship training, as well as hands-ontraining of laboratory/field equipment. These findings will guide future MOM Belize programefforts, ensuring that the program continues to meet the needs of CJC and its community.Key Wordsneeds assessment; focus group; service-learning project; international partner
