Village Health Action

Village Health Action is a youth-led organization founded in 2012 that promoted public health from the grassroots level. A group of medical students, most of them in their third year, launched the organization to educate people on health issues, starting a community in remote areas. There is a lack of information that leads people to consult witch doctors. Others go to the hospital at a late stage; therefore, an increase in mortality and morbidity is observed. We are committed to achieving health for all.
