Primary Healthcare Teaching in North East India
I'm hoping to go as part of a small "Links International" team in November. One or two additional team
members to teach local women in a remote village would be helpful. Let me know if you can help or would
like more information - geoff.hogg a_t gpinnovations d_o_t org d_o_t uk
Have a good month
