Thanks for sharing your experience. I work at the Hesperian Foundation, the non-profit organization that publishes “Where There Is No Doctor” which you referenced in your blog. I am so happy to read that you were able to share information from our book about childbirth and maternity with women in the village. The power of sharing information is amazing.
I wanted to let you know that we have many other titles that might be useful for the conditions of the villages you are working in. We have books on midwifery, women’s health, dental health, water and sanitation, teaching villagers how to be community health workers, and our most recent book on environmental health. Nearly all of these books are available to download for free on our website http://www.hesperian.org. We also have the Gratis program which sends Hesperian books for free to poor communities that can’t afford them, otherwise. There’s more info about how you can apply to the Gratis program for free books on our website as well. Perhaps you could post a link to our website http://www.hesperian.org if you find it useful.
Thanks again for sharing your experience and working towards improving health conditions in the communities you are visiting. I hope Hesperian can help you with your work.

Best, Crystal

that’s all
