People Are Watching
The Hesperian Foundation in Berkeley, CA has recently contacted Kinkajou with the hopes of transferring some of their content to the projector. The foundation publishes global health books & distributes them to those non profit & health organizations who work in remote areas on medical issues.
Kinkajou is very excited at the opportunity to partner with the Hesperian foundation in the near future.
A world health organization has put some of these books on a CD rom but because of lack of computers there's a problem in rural areas which is most of Africa.
Some of the titles published by the foundation include: Where there is no Doctor, HIV, and Helping Health workers Learn Where women have no doctor.
The health manuals teach community health workers critical life-saving skills & inspire the creation of innovative & responsive local programs. The books are easy to read & have lots of illustrations.
