The last weeks of my year (can you believe it?) Are broken in Panama. I take everything goes with what!
For those who have little time, here is a one-minute video statement:
At first I was two weeks again on a gira médica , one of the mobile-medical rounds with Americans. So spectacular the first was, so was this, fourth almost routine. I have translated in the drug issue and dealt with the Farmazisten drugs. Since this time was the area around Buenos Aires (the village where I give a week tuition) is covered, I already knew everything, and even many of the patients because they are my students.
In the drug issue in a school
All provisionally something, but here it is really only to supply and medical knowledge to
In a school under the palms, the group of about 40 medical students, doctors and translators set
for my medical knowledge, but also further liquefaction of my English -English translation, has also shown me use this again, that the need for good medical care in Panama even in the vicinity of the main artery of the country urgently needed. And another developing country problem has been found particularly in this region: illiteracy. Many people over 40 can not read or write and had such problems with the instructions on the drugs ...
Some Ngöbe-Indian women and a typical campesino hat with Omi
have in the next week I again worked with the "activist" Larissa. In her village (the road that goes through the whole of America) directly to the Inter-Americana is, there is much poverty and people living in adobe houses that were built there with the help of the Panama-circle about 30 years ago. I was there once to help in the completion of a workshop / library / multi-use facility and to a reforestation project near the village a little more to know from first row. Here is the photo story:
No, this bag is not gold that I stole from a bank in the Wild West ... But stones and sand, we have 'stolen' from the ruins of which are from the construction of the Inter-Americana left - is not anyway a lot, so it's not really as criminal :-P
The houses that were built with German help here 30 years ago, are now in poor State, but the people themselves have no financial means to do something about
I'll miss most: cooking bananas :-(
children.'s wealth, while the poverty of many developing countries. These little helpers at the time should actually be in school ... However, if there is no money may need to school supplies are not purchased and the children are more likely to the country needed to ensure the diet. If they do, however, no education or only primary school, the opportunities for advancement out of poverty are not very many ... A vicious circle!
The breeding garden of the reforestation project in the village of El Cobre "
Larissa explained to a hard-working helpers, which are made must
planted a tree for his little helper for a greener future and Panama
The biggest enemy of reforestation projects: the leaf-cutting ant, which has already attacked parts of the project young
seedlings in the hard, dry and on the surface only stony ground is not easy - especially not where it operates reforestation, because it no shadows are and how in the desert sun beats down
The only shrubs that grow in dry-up of the desert landscape of the Central Provinces are not particularly large, covered but still regularly fire "cleaning" of the land to the victims, so that nothing can grow out of fast grass
At the bus stop the village is the message, "Save life on earth, plant trees!"
Although the people are simple and poor, that does not mean they do not or can not. A man in a village in its Arts from the subsistence Hutflächter. This can be, depending on HutArt make up to $ 30 a piece.
to the people of my organization Cepas (now have a website ) I also was a bit to know dealt with the organization and the costs of such activities
This organization still important to me, so I from, so take with me officially as "developmental voluntary service" Weltwaerts even some of the policy in development policy.
follow Now two weeks, from which there will be something to report, I'm sure. See you soon!
