Nurses, Spokespeople, and life

http://www.theboot.com/2011/03/08/lee-ann-womack-join-my-village-malawi/





So Lee Ann Womack joins the fight for growth in Malawi, we have some farmers having trouble and other things.

I guess one thing I think is really cool is the fact that people are finally realizing what is going on in Malawi and of all the really kind of cool people that you almost never hear from, Lee Ann Womack.

Its interesting to see that Malawi also has a shortage of mid-wifes but has more modern amenities in the city. Even though I've heard reports these amenities really are not much to speak of, it boggles me that they would have these kinds of issues. Then again as per girleffect.org in some countries there are expectations for girls at age 14 to be married and at age 15 be pregnant and there is a lot of potential for issues on generations created by these kinds numerically low-aged parents. not saying they are not capable, but that there is an impracticality towards the matter.

This comes with reports of a government having issues and not being "media" friendly with some media fighting back and that farming is an issue.

I know a country is pretty big, but I definitely think there needs to be a more focused aim to fixing problems instead of scattering resources in the way that has occurred. but then again, who am i, ya know?
