‘Back to Basics’: Peter Hall, Olivier Theatre, National Theatre, 1987

Abstract

Recognizing that three-fourths of the world's population is culturally tied to indigenous health care systems, WHO is attempting to emphasize traditional medicine under the division of Appropriate Technology for Health (ATH). A regularly published newsletter describes health technologies appropriate for developing areas. Additionally the Istituto Italo-Africano in Rome has become the first collaborating institution in WHO's traditional medicine program.
