Kitengesa community library in Uganda recently launched a women’s health camp. The library had a terrific young doctor from the Marie Stopes clinic in town talking to women and the women participated enthusiastically. UBC interns are hard at work, with librarians and library scholars. Library scholars are learning how to play snakes and ladders. There is a version of the game that includes ladder cards, naming practices that are good for your health, and snake cards, naming practices that are bad for it. The camps hopes to get women to make equivalent cards about cancer.
