Young women aid Ethiopia's health system

Young women aid Ethiopia's health system

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/programme...nt/9464344.stm

Nice morning story

"Eynalem Taye is 23-years-old, but her tiny frame makes her look like a slight teenager.

She sits confidently in the single-storey building she shares with another young woman health worker. She does not wear a uniform, save for a bright blue watch marked with a tiny Ethiopian flag and the words "Health Extension Worker" which denote that she is now qualified.............."

The one downer is the amount of people who try and get out after getting a little education. You can't blame them but it is a brain drain on a country that needs to keep them.
