Rural Health Project |
Seventy-five
kilometers from Thane, scattered on a mountain range,
is a cluster of tribal hamlets. In the main village
of Dolkamb, Abraham and his wife Hannah oversee various
community programs. Abraham has been trained to provide
basic health care and education. He is able to diagnose
and treat common medical problems, however, if further
consultation is required, patients are referred to Lok
Hospital. Other programs have been started in the village
designed to improve infra-structural services such as
water supply and sanitation, and to provide basic education
for children including vocational training for youth.
