Training courses
Heart of Asia has been funding three week training courses
in simple healthcare at Dzongsar Menkhang (the Tibetan herbal
medicine hospital.) Tibetan speaking volunteer health workers from
the UK share their knowledge with selected people from
Dzongsar-Meshu and from Dru gu.
Youdon talks about nutrition
We aim to empower local men and women with basic hygiene, nutrition,
first aid, maternity and child healthcare skills to create a network
of barefoot health workers who can both help and educate their
communities.
£1,200 will pay for a three week training
course at Dzongsar Menkhang.
Ten people donating £10 per month will pay
for this.
