Paul Farmer, Partners in Health and Tuberculosis

Paul Farmer, born in Massachusetts in 1959, attended Harvard Medical School and became a doctor and finally lived in Haiti and worked. In 1987 co-founded an organization called Health Partners (PIH). The idea behind the organization is that anyone can do whatever, where, where and where they have health care rights. Paul Farmer and PIH have made remarkable progress in Haiti, Peru and several other countries to make people get the care they need. The detailed history of work with farmers in Haiti is posted on the PIH website.

Paul Farmer is not only a public health doctor but also a promoter of health partner and sister organization Zanmi Lasante and a very active and influential participant in medical anthropology. This field is stated in the official website of the Medical Anthropological Association (http://www.medanthro.net/). Please understand these factors. It affects health and happiness (widely defined), disease experiences and distribution, prevention and treatment of diseases, treatment processes, social relationships in treatment management, and cultural importance and utilization of multiple medical systems I will. The field of medical anthropology is based on many different theoretical methods

Paul Farmer is one of the world's leading global health care experts and anthropologist. His community-based healthcare approach was implemented through his organization's "health partner" and founded hospitals in several countries. Farmers spend most of their time in Haiti and Rwanda. But his work is very important and his success is due to his cultural sensitivity. He understands that the local communities and people's efforts that he deals with are core principles that inspire anthropology. This video is part of the 60th minute of 2008.

I could not relieve more when I saw the video about Paul Farmer in 60 minutes, and how he created a free health care campaign called a health partner. The farmer established a health clinic in nine separate independent third world countries, not one. There were several suggestions for his plan and limited resources, but Farrar did this and proved that he had the ability to "human" emotions. It also shows passion and motivation to you that everything is possible. Farmers treat their patients like loving and respectful families and say that love and respect are well rewarded.
