Ghana Seva Clinic Expands

13 new health workers trained
The 13 newly trained health promoters

Expanded Health Outreach Programme

Earlier in 2007, AMURT and the Seva Clinic expanded the health outreach programme and initiated a new exciting project to train health promoters in the villages. The goal is to localise knowledge so that the health education in schools and communities can be ongoing and not depend on visitors and overseas volunteers.

We are starting with a group of 13 determined women, each chosen by the women in their village through a selection process. The program has been given the name 'Kekeli', which means brightness. The slogan of the program is ‘women together for health and development”. The training is finished and the graduation ceremony took place in April. An eighty page manual has been prepared and translated into Ewe (the local language), and a copy will be given to each of the candidates.

We are very excited about this programme as it has the true potential to take our community health work to a whole new level. Initially the emphasis will be on health education and prevention, but if things go well, the women will learn further skills to enable them to meet the health needs of their communities.

However, concerns have been

However, concerns have been raised over the sustainability web site design of intensive agriculture. Intensive agriculture has become associated with decreased soil quality in India and Asia, and there has been increased concern over the effects of fertilizers and pesticides on the environment, particularly as population increases and food demand expands. The monocultures typically used in intensive internet marketing agriculture increase the number of pests, which are controlled through pesticides. Integrated pest management (IPM), which "has been promoted for decades and has had some notable successes" has not significantly affected the use of pesticides because policies encourage the use of pesticides and IPM is knowledge-intensive.Although internet phone the "Green Revolution" significantly increased rice yields in Asia, yield increases have not occurred in the past 15–20 years. The genetic "yield potential" has increased for wheat, but the yield potential for rice has not increased since 1966, and the yield potential for maize has "barely increased in 35 years".It accept credit card takes a decade or two for herbicide-resistant weeds to emerge, and insects become resistant to insecticides within about a decade. Crop rotation helps to prevent resistances.
