My first site visit to the Apna Clinic

  • Ashwin Advani

    Ashwin has extended his Fellowship with SNEHA, which focuses on the health of women and children in the informal settlements of Mumbai. His work will enhance SNEHA's integrated health center model and life-cycle approach. He will also continue a project developing a crowd-sourced notification, data collection, mapping, and response coordination system for incidents of domestic violence. He moved to India to learn about systemic issues in the context of sustainable and capacity-building solutions, and initially worked with AIF's Maternal and Newborn Survival Initiative (MANSI). He started his Fellowship with ICICI Foundation's project on truckers' health before moving to SNEHA. Previously, Ashwin spent nearly five years consulting in healthcare informatics and emerging markets security in Washington DC, with roles in project management, communications, and training. In addition, Ashwin committed himself to many volunteer projects on community outreach, fundraising, youth sports, and social enterprise.

    To my knowledge this is the first solely video blog on the AIF Fellowship site. Congrats. Glad to know that the focus on Truckers’ health has gone beyond Aids.

  2. Dear Ashwin, this video not only describes the work of ICICI foundation but also says a lot abut your first field visit experience. Please let me know if you need any help in future to develop more videos.

  3. Wow Ashwin, very heart warming to see that the motherland is trying to pick up compatriots left behind in this long distance rush to deliver food and all else to us. Thanks for highlighting the work of the Apna Clinic.
    As for your Yoga skills, hmmm!
