  • A Village Struggles for Eye Health
    Hanyane : A Village Struggles for Eye Health Hanyane - A Village Struggles for Eye Health This book deals with primary eye care in the context of community health and development and provides a practical guide to the diagnosis and management of common eye problems. It is written for health workers involved in providing primary and secondary eye care and will also be of relevance to all those striving to improve the health of people in rural communities. It has many illustrations which enable the story of Hanyane to be retold to community groups as an example of what can be achieved. The book has been produced by the International Centre for Eye Health, London, and is based on the varied experience of the three authors during their years in Africa. ERIKA SUTTER is an ophthalmologist from Switzerland who was in charge of eye services and training of ophthalmic nurses at Elim hospital in South Africa for over twenty years. Nine years were spent establishing the Elim Care Group Project on which the story and discussion about Hanyane is based. She now lectures on community eye health at the Swiss Tropical Institute, Basle, and the International Centre for Eye Health, London. ALLEN FOSTER works for Christoffel Blindenmission as Medical Consultant for Africa and is also a senior lecturer in preventive ophthalmology at the Institute of Ophthalmology in London. He spent nine years as Medical Superintendent at Mvumi Hospital in Tanzania where he developed a training programme for eye workers from East and West Africa. VICTORIA FRANCIS is an artist and health education trainer.

  • Histoire De La Santé Publique Et Communautaire En Afrique. Le Rôle Des Médecins De La Mission Suisse En Afrique Du Sud1*
    Gesnerus 72/1 (2015) 135–158 Histoire de la santé publique et communautaire en Afrique. Le rôle des médecins de la mission suisse en Afrique du Sud1* Hines Mabika Summary It was not Dutch settlers nor British colonizers who introduced public and community health practice in north-eastern South Africa but medical doctors of the Swiss mission in southern Africa. While the history of medical knowl- edge transfer into 19th–20th century Africa emphasises colonial powers, this paper shows how countries without colonies contributed to expand western medical cultures, including public health. The Swiss took advantage of the lo- cal authorities’ negligence, and implemented their own model of medicaliza- tion of African societies, understood as the way of improving health stan- dards. They moved from a tolerated hospital-centred medicine to the practice of community health, which was uncommon at the time. Elim hospital’s physi- cians moved back boundaries of segregationist policies, and sometime gave the impression of being involved in the political struggle against Apartheid. Thus, Swiss public health activities could later be seen as sorts of seeds that were planted and would partly reappear in 1994 with the ANC-projected na- tional health policy. Keywords: South Africa, Switzerland, Public Health, Medical Missions, Medical Apartheid. * L’auteur remercie les Profs V. Barras et. P. Gisel pour le soutien financier de leurs institutions lors de la rédaction de cet article dans le cadre de la coopération interfacultaire de l’Université de Lausanne, le Prof. H.

The Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education moved RIT to a doctoral university status in 2016, due to the rapidly growing number of Ph.D. degrees awarded each year. This comes as no surprise to the faculty and students engaged in research, pedagogical undertakings and scholarly activities at RIT. The scholarly efforts within this report continue to have a profound impact within our local communities, the industries we collaborate with, and the world. This work, which ranges from making our university and our communities more sustainable, to understanding the very fabric of our universe, engages students in ways which prepare them for our ever- changing world. The growth of our research and scholarship is guided by our vision for the future, where imagination and the application of interdisciplinary skills will place our faculty and our students at the forefront of the global economy.
