The health movement initiated by Dr Leila* was continued by Dr Senta Siller from 1993 under the title One Baby-One Tree.
The village NGO's water project financed a deep well that made the tested water available to the villagers.

To remember from the beginning
Wednesday, May 15, 2024
In 1991 the film Amjads Village (see Archive www.dgfk-archive.de ) was made by the DGFK e.V. and premiered in the Babylon Film Theater in Berlin. A young doctor, Dr Leila, was inspired to provide basic medical care in the village between 1991 and 1993.
Between 40 and 50 patients came to her every day!
Even after her departure (she lived in the USA, New Zealand, now Australia) she financially supported the emerging BHU (Basic Health Unit), now with its own building.
She was followed by Dr Elizabeth from Melbourne (she received an Australian Order of Merit), Dr Karola (she received a German Order of Merit), -
Three village girls traveled to Dr Ruth Pfau in Karachit to train as LHV. The nurse Marlis from Switzerland, who also worked in the Cameroonian subsidiary project and received a medal of merit there, continued to run the BHU.

Of the Power of the Small

Prof Dr Norbert Pintsch
No matter what is conceived or initiated, - more or less quickly the thought process moves to mass thinking and mass production; The motive in the background is to be able to participate in global events.
Even if such thought processes are understandable due to the global spree, still the preservation and support of small-scale and unspectacular projects are necessary.
It is not the globalization and digitization that represents the basis for the future, but the increasingly disappearing analog, the cultural asset that has emerged at some point - similar to the arctic seed vault in Spitzergen in the area of plants and horticulture.
It is urgently needed to support the delicate shoots of such projects is urgently needed, including the preservation of the environment.
The usual commercialization of such projects is counterproductive and destructive!
