Medical And Emergency Health To People In Larkana Sindh

This program is conducted in partnership with the NGO Aide Medical
Internationale (AMI) as part of a consortium operating.
The choice of intervention areas is common, taking into account the complementarity
of the two associations. The team at Premiere Urgence, comprises 10 expatriates.
It specializes in projects WASH (sewerage and water treatment) and CMCC
(management and coordination of IDP camps). For its part, the AMI team has 6
expatriates. It develops health programs (access to primary health care, nutrition
and hygiene promotion). In total, 16 expatriates and are therefore nearly a hundred
local employees who work together on the ground to improve the health situation in
the region through access to primary health care and drinking water.

On 18 January 2011, after two hours drive from Larkana, the teams finally reaching
PU and AMI Mathiyan Boohar, disaster area during the floods of summer 2010.

Following an evaluation of medical and health behavior in previous weeks by our
team, this village is among the first to receive humanitarian assistance since its
inhabitants have returned to live there. Indeed, it is only now that the low water
level has allowed people to return home.
Naheed and Farheem, two employees of PU and AMI, start their session in
hygiene promotion, each handling one of the two sexes. Farheem says quietly
"Some villagers have not washed for months."
