AYUSH Gram is a concept wherein one village per block will be selected for AYUSH interventions of health care by setting up facilities including hospitals. The overall health check-up of the entire population will be done by Ayush doctors based on Ayush systems and they will be provided basic knowledge for the promotion of health and prevention of diseases. The communities will be educated about healthy practices and advantages of traditional food items used locally and their medicinal properties.
Our job was to understand the system at a macro and micro level and suggest impactful areas and ideas that would increase the HEALTH & WELL-BEING of the village.
