First Aid Training for Shipibo Healers
Organization information
Organizacion Intercultural Oni Xobo
Location: Yarinacocha, Peru
Summary
Shipibo traditional healers have made a huge impact on the world, sharing their ancestral knowledge and providing healing and spiritual guidance for thousands of foreigners. What we don't see is the essential role that these healers play in their home communities, acting as doctors for many families. The healers have themselves requested training in modern medicine techniques, starting with basic First Aid and basic Injection training.
