With the help of a crowdfunding campaign, we could provide funds allowing an apprentice,
Tsering Tundups, to do an internship.
Our aim is to further support Amchi medicine in the valley.
Courtesy of the local Authorities, we were given permission to use a medical aid center in Tungri. The nurses and the Amchi provide basic medical care to the villagers, with basic drugs and simple diagnostic tools, and it has already seen more than 500 patients in its first year.
The nurses work in collaboration with the doctors in Padum, should a patient need a more complex care.
