Discussion groups focusing on the material so far based on the three film portraits: Do the films portray individual circumstances or are they examples representative of many people’s living conditions? The interaction between poverty and sickness: what is the problem underlying the case portrayed here? What do these people or societies really need, and what approaches can be taken to providing it? Starting points for intervention within and outside the health sector (individual – community – national programmes)? Ability of international health cooperation to affect the situation? |
