As health is going to be the most important aspect of all our studies, training of the village women folks to become a mid wife is the need of the hour. The problem begins with the birth of child itself, when a local 'dai' helps the mother to give birth. She seldom cleans her hands, and unbilical cord is cut with the help of a sharp edged piece of Bomboo. Therefore the entire process is unhealthy and root cause of all their sufferings. Half the children get infected with Tetanus and diseases, and therefore die before they reach the age fo 5 to 6 years.
Hence we are decided to start a mid-wife training center for these Adivasi girls.
An appeal is made to all like minded voluntary agencies, Humanitarian agencies to come forward and join hands in the upliftment of this tribe. |
