Abstract

Leaving behind the packed, dusty roads of the city, we reached the lush green forests of Gudalur (Nilgiris district, Tamil Nadu) to visit a tribal hospital in the Mudumalai Tiger Reserve. The hospital board read ‘Ashwini - Association of Health Welfare in the Nilgiris: Managed and owned by the community’. The words ‘owned by the community’ seemed almost idealistic and have lingered in our minds as we celebrate World Health Day on April 7.
