Education
Nomadicare supports education on many levels.
Doctor Training
Nomadicare provides training to sum (county) doctors for the safe use of equipment, supplies, and tests when it delivers diagnostic laboratories. Since Nomadicare is committed to harmonizing traditional and modern medicine, it also provides Mongolian medicine training to doctors in sum hospitals. Mongolian Medicine, a powerful, cost effective, and culturally appropriate method, was lost to the remote sums when the Soviets forbade its use from 1920-1990.
University
Since nomadic herders do not live on a cash economy, they are unable to pay for a higher education for their young people. Nomadicare has helped with tuition, travel, entrance exams and books for a few students from the northern taiga region.
Elementary
Nomadicare teaches children health and hygiene, promotes health in the schools, and provides educational supplies. Before electricity in Tsagaan Nuur, Hovsgol Province, Nomadicare provided solar lights to dormitories where herder children live during the school year. Nomadicare has given toys to kindergartens with no toys, sports equipment to Manlai, South Gobi and helped families with funding for school clothing.
United States
Nomadicare offers multimedia presentations on its work in Mongolia to universities, colleges, libraries and museums in the United States.
