026 [W8] RURAL HEALTH/EDUCATION


|| Containers to Clinics || Innovative health care for Women and Children
http://www.containers2clinics.org/

Mission Statement
Containers 2 Clinics (c2c) seeks to reduce maternal and child morbidity and mortality rates in the developing world by providing access to high-quality primary healthcare for women and children. We deploy shipping containers converted into clinics to areas with inadequate facilities and collaborate with the local organisations and governments to provide clinical, laboratory, pharmacy, and health education services.

Objectives
To reduce maternal and child morbidity and mortality by;
      - Providing access to quality health care for under-resourced, vulnerable women and children;
      - Filling infrastructure and programming shortfalls in the public health system.
To create a sustainable solution by building expertise and accountability at the local level through partnerships with a national ministries of health hand local non-governmental organisation (NGOs)

The following images represent a timeline of sorts for the construction and integration of the C2C into the needed township. I hope to achieve a similar approach within my design, whilst meeting the needs of the community.
