Description
This presentation describes the organization of a book drive for the Malawi College of Health Sciences in Blantyre, Malawi. The College’s library serves about 700 students, as well as healthcare professionals from a neighboring hospital. However, the library lacks sufficient resources, with most of their books being outdated or in poor condition, diminishing health care quality in Malawi.
