(LML) Socio-economic rehabilitation: habitat for people affected by leprosy

Leprosy Mailing List – July 22,  2015

Ref.:    (LML) Socio-economic rehabilitation: habitat for people affected by leprosy

From:  Joseph Kawuma, Kampala, Uganda


 

Dear Pieter,

 

This is in response to the inquiry from Muherman Harun (LML, July 20, 2015).

 

I think there is lots of literature about LEPROSARIA. A few that I knew actually began with ideas quite similar to those of Dr Harun. If possible he should provide some more basic information about the target population.

There is mention of "we" and "the Rajahs" in this decision, what about the leprosy affected persons: was this their decision or the best choice out of several options?

Would they be able to do gardening as their preferred income generating activity? Would they be happy about living in this large expanse of land where the entire neighbourhood comprises leprosy affected persons?

 

A little more detail in this direction would perhaps prompt readers to advise on the kind of literature review needed.
