2003-

In the first 5-year project we focused on ORT. Its objectives

were improving the knowledge and practices of PHC(Primary Health Care).

The strong desire for the next 5-

year project from rovers enabled to continue the new stage. We started to

do the both PHC and NC(nature conservation) project since 2003.
