Gesundheit, insbesondere Basisgesundheitsversorgung, ist Voraussetzung für Entwicklung: Sind diese beiden Grundaussagen der Erklärung von Alma Ata heute noch gültig? Und wo setzen schweizerische Organisationen in der Auseinandersetzung mit Gesundheit den Hauptakzent? Bei gesundheitsspezifischen Interventionen oder bei Interventionen in anderen Sektoren, die auch Auswirkungen auf die Gesundheit der Menschen haben? – Die Antworten auf eine von Medicus Mundi Schweiz durchgeführte Umfrage ergeben ein sehr vielfältiges Bild.

Since 1999, the two NGOs World Vision and Ex-Cola have worked together annually with 20 young mothers, to help them regain self confidence and acquire practical skills so that they become able to treat their children better than they have been treated themselves.
