Healthbooks
This booklet is one of a series designed to teach basic principles of health—particularly preventative health. The content has been especially designed to be relevant and helpful to the situation of those in remote villages.
The lessons are taught in the traditional way through stories, which are complemented with many illustrations. The larger text is Matigsalug, but English is also included to assist other health workers. A set of questions and answers follows each story to be used in self-study or by the facilitator in group sessions.
