We all ‘know’ the world through a combination of our education, culture, language and belief, and just as importantly, our actual physical realities, gender and socio-economic environment. How life is known, is how it is experienced and understood. For anyone dealing with ‘knowledge’ the question is how to act effectively in an environment of multiple knowledges.”(Powell) http://www.healthnettpo.org/en/1269/showing-what-we-do.html January 2012, by Marieke van der Vliet - As I wrote in my last blog, most of the work of HealthNet TPO (HNTPO) takes place in the field. To be more precise: it takes place in the communities of people that lead their daily life in the villages in the rolling hills of Burundi. http://www.healthnettpo.org/en/1268/community-midwifery-project-on-pifworld-com-is-funded.html January 13, 2012 - Via www.pifworld.com HealthNet TPO has been able to raise extra money for its comprehensive ‘Community Midwifery Programme’ in Afghanistan. The money will be used for an additional project supporting the training of midwives in the Nangarhar province. http://www.healthnettpo.org/en/1267/high-or-low-dropout-rate-health-insurance-cambodia.html January 6, 2012 – The community health insurance scheme that HealthNet TPO implements in Cambodia has been running for over a year now. Of the family members who enrolled in 2010, only 48% renewed their membership in 2011. At first sight it seems the project is not that successful. But after asking the families why exactly they dropped out, we might even be a bit proud.
