| Welcome to Resources
This area offers a guide to groups and other resources on the
web that we have found to be notable examples offering information
and support useful to developing community-based healthcare. We
have also included links to organizations and non profits that
may not be directly involved in healthcare, but who are involved
in addressing broader social concerns related to health, and healthcare
delivery.
Please take the time visit these websites, and to offer us your
feedback on their
usefulness and utility to your program.
Please also send us
your favorite links to websites
offering information on organizing, planning, funding and management
of community-based healthcare in the developing world.
