Tolakari- A Beginning

A document on health training is an outgrowth of Sama’s field based initiatives on health and women’s empowerment. The document was prepared by Sama with Girijana Deepika and CEAD, in order to document the experiences of various training undertakings and to develop them into a tool to help NGO’s and other groups in their training efforts. It addresses groups that are attempting to integrate traditional knowledge and healing systems, while simultaneously addressing the larger factors that affect health. The emphasis throughout has been to generate an understanding of health from a gender perspective which is crucial for appropriate interventions.
