These are the kinds of lessons that monitoring and evaluation helps to elucidate so we can improve our programs and measure our impact. http://www.malihealth.org/ht/d/ArticleDetails/i/2429 http://www.malihealth.org/ht/d/ArticleDetails/i/2429 Fri, 19 Aug 2011 00:00:00 CDT Diarrhea, which can rapidly dehydrate and kill young children, is one of the top causes of child mortality in Mali.

The World Health Organization, in contrast, recommends that every country have one doctor per 1,000 people. Providing health services without sufficient doctors and nurses is a daunting task. Training and retaining medical students is only part of the solution for countries like Mali though. http://www.malihealth.org/ht/d/ArticleDetails/i/2391 http://www.malihealth.org/ht/d/ArticleDetails/i/2391 Fri, 03 Jun 2011 00:00:00 CDT With the support of our Community Health Worker team, Action for Health recently expanded to two new neighborhoods, nearly doubling program enrollment.

It is also about ensuring families understand why sickness occurs and what they can do to prevent it (be it attending prenatal care or handwashing) while also making sure they have the tools to do so (like soap, bed nets, or money for medical fees). Our Community Health Workers are on the frontline of health in Sikoro doing just that. http://www.malihealth.org/ht/d/ArticleDetails/i/2363 http://www.malihealth.org/ht/d/ArticleDetails/i/2363 Fri, 25 Mar 2011 00:00:00 CDT One year ago the Sikoro-Sourakabougou clinic opened its doors to provide health care to some of the poorest and most marginalized families in Bamako. Recently MHOP team members, Sikoro leaders, construction workers, and clinic staff came together to celebrate this one-year anniversary, reflecting on our successes as well as the road ahead. http://www.malihealth.org/ht/d/ArticleDetails/i/2358 http://www.malihealth.org/ht/d/ArticleDetails/i/2358 Thu, 17 Mar 2011 00:00:00 CDT One of our principle goals at MHOP is to foster the capacity of residents to come together to address community health needs.

In a very logical decision, she had named her cat "Jakama" which means "cat" in bambara, the local language in Mali. Only later did she learn that "Jakama" is also slang for "penis." "I was mortified, but you know, you get over it," said Caitlin, taking the discovery with a grain of salt and changing the cat's name to "Kuma", meaning "to speak". http://dove.msn.com/#/connections/columns/BQ_Response_Guest_AAnderson.aspx[cp-documentid=11290414]/ http://dove.msn.com/#/connections/columns/BQ_Response_Guest_AAnderson.aspx[cp-documentid=11290414]/ Tue, 28 Oct 2008 00:00:00 CDT Caitlin is featured in CelebsGoneGood columnist Ariston Anderson's article for Dove/MSN's "How can you be an architect for change?". http://media.www.browndailyherald.com/media/storage/paper472/news/2008/10/27/CampusNews/Clinton.Global.WalMart.Award.Brown-3507507.shtml http://media.www.browndailyherald.com/media/storage/paper472/news/2008/10/27/CampusNews/Clinton.Global.WalMart.Award.Brown-3507507.shtml Mon, 27 Oct 2008 00:00:00 CDT Caroline Mailloux and Rachel Levenson were granted $2500 and $1500 respectively from the Clinton Foundation for their work on the trash and health financing programs! http://media.www.browndailyherald.com/media/storage/paper472/news/2008/09/29/ArtsCulture/Malian.hendrix.Brings.Funk.To.Project-3457577.shtml http://media.www.browndailyherald.com/media/storage/paper472/news/2008/09/29/ArtsCulture/Malian.hendrix.Brings.Funk.To.Project-3457577.shtml Mon, 29 Sep 2008 00:00:00 CDT Vieux Farka Toure, called a Malian version of musician Jimi Hendrix, played at Alumnae Hall in an concert to raise funds for the construction of a malaria ward of a clinic in Mali. http://www.reformer.com/ci_9860156?IADID http://www.reformer.com/ci_9860156?IADID Sat, 12 Jul 2008 00:00:00 CDT Caitlin Cohen originally went to Mali as a college student to assist in AIDS research.
