Dear Colleagues,

I have recently returned from a trip to India and Nepal. From that visit I
became aware that prosthetic care could be improved if appropriate technology
strategies and resources were shared.

I would like to compile a list, or obtain a list of Prosthetic projects that
are currently in operation in developing or underserved countries.

I am requesting the name of the governmental and non-governmental and private
 organizations, addresses, and people to contact.

I am interested in the types of components, alignment systems, training
programs, and sources of materials used.

Some of these may have been posted in the past but I can't seem to locate
those posts in my saved e-mail list.

It is hoped that through the combined efforts of a few organizations,
appropriate technology programs throughout the world can come together
for practical sharing and hands-on workshops at a future date.

Thank you.
