> Dear friends,
>
> Hello!  I have been following with great interest the exchanges on the
> activities for the 25th PHC anniversary next year.  Sorry for not
> communicating much earlier.  I have been very busy with academic
> requirements now that the semester is ending.  Also I was involved in the
> workshop conducted by the Association of Philippine Medical Colleges on
re-
> defining the core curriculum on family and community medicine for the
> undergraduate medical course in the light of new developments in
> medicine.  Of course, I stressed that the developments have to be seen in
> the context of globalization and its impact on health.  I shared with the
> participants who were mostly Chairs and senior professors of the
> Department of Family and Community Medicine from 27 medical schools all
> over the country the People's Health Movement and the People's Charter for
> Health.  They are all interested to be put in the PHA Excange list.  I
> will send their e mail addresses to Claudio for enrollment.
>
> This coming October 23, with the support of ACHAN, CHD (Council for Health
> and Development) and HAIN, the Filipino group who was in Bangladesh
> together with other supporters of the PHM will be holding a forum/meeting
> on present developments locally and globally and how we will plan for next
> year's activities, strenghthening the various PHM circles.  Initially, we
> are targetting the last week of January to hold an assembly where we would
> re-intensify our campaign on PCH and PHM, as our opening salvo for the
> 25th Alma Ata anniversary activities.
>
> In this regard, may I request any one of you to please send me by
> attachment any material that you think may be useful for our meeting on
> Wednesday.  It would really be good if each of the participants will be
> able to bring back with them copies of materials that they can discuss
> with their own constituents and adapt to their own settings.  I do wish
> you could send these to me by Monday so I have time to reproduce them on
> Tuesday.  I do not mean to impose myself and really am sorry for this
> delayed request but the abovementioned workshop which just ended yesterday
> really took up a lot of my time and concerns.
>
> Wishing that you are all well.  Thanks a lot in advance.
