  • A woman recovers in the Methodist Hospital in Mathura, India, from being burned by her in-laws. The practice of dowry, where the bride's family pays the groom's family with money and objects, has grown in India, contributing to violence against many women whose family cannot keep transferring wealth.

  • 2 March 2017, Morija, Maseru district, Lesotho: Adam Creighton, development director of InStove, talks to a nurse at Scott Hospital, inquiring about a sleeping child. The child, which sleeps next to the hospital's incubation machines, is called a "lost and found" by the nurses. The child was found 7 days ago, crying alone in a field near the hospital. The hospital has taken the child in for care, the police are trying the locate the child's family, and a social worker has been assigned to the case. The child is a suspected orphan. ”It’s rare to find orphans like this, but it’s not the first time” say the nurses at Scott's. Scott Hospital is run by the Lesotho Evangelical Church in Southern Africa and is a founding member of the Christian Health Association of Lesotho. It is located in the village of Morija, and operates and supervises clinics in the Maseru District of Lesotho. Scott started out as a dispensary in 1864, and today offers comprehensive healthcare Mondays-Fridays, as well as pharmaceutical services around the clock. Lesotho suffers from high numbers in Tuberculosis in disesase and mortality, and so the hospital screens all patients for TB. The hospital observes among many patients what they describe as ”low health-seeking behaviour”, services are increasing and demand rising, but space and human resources are a challenge, as is funding. I key concern is one of infrastructure, where the original design of the hospital matches poorly with current needs, as departments and buildings are scattered, posing a challenge for security. Another challenge is to adapt donation structures, so as to be able to receive payments electronically. The hospital has one ambulance, which they describe as not enough, but what they have. Another challenge is that lack of funds affects maintenance of buildings and infrastructure, as the immediate care of patients take priority.

  • 2 March 2017, Morija, Maseru district, Lesotho: Adam Creighton, development director of InStove donates a 20-litre stove autoclave system to Scott Hospital clinical manager Ella Ramatla. The stove is to be used at the Materiel Health Centre in the district of Mafeteng, Lesotho, at a satellite learning centre run by Scott Hospital. The stove autoclave system can be used either to sterilize medical equipment, including waste, or as a cookstove. It runs on small amounts of renewable biomass. The rationale is that small pieces of biomass can be used as fuel more sustainably than when stoves require large-piece firewood.

  • 2 March 2017, Morija, Maseru district, Lesotho: Matabo Mosoeu is a cleaner at Scott Hospital. Scott Hospital is run by the Lesotho Evangelical Church in Southern Africa and is a founding member of the Christian Health Association of Lesotho. It is located in the village of Morija, and operates and supervises clinics in the Maseru District of Lesotho. Scott started out as a dispensary in 1864, and today offers comprehensive healthcare Mondays-Fridays, as well as pharmaceutical services around the clock. Lesotho suffers from high numbers in Tuberculosis in disesase and mortality, and so the hospital screens all patients for TB. The hospital observes among many patients what they describe as ”low health-seeking behaviour”, services are increasing and demand rising, but space and human resources are a challenge, as is funding. I key concern is one of infrastructure, where the original design of the hospital matches poorly with current needs, as departments and buildings are scattered, posing a challenge for security. Another challenge is to adapt donation structures, so as to be able to receive payments electronically. The hospital has one ambulance, which they describe as not enough, but what they have. Another challenge is that lack of funds affects maintenance of buildings and infrastructure, as the immediate care of patients take priority.

  • Jimmy Randolfo Aguilar lay on a hospital bed in the emergency room of Choluteca hospital, beaten by a reportedly large group of soldiers during a demonstration against fraud in the elections, sources said he died from his injuries later that night.<br />
<br />
In a letter shared with the photographer, emergency room staff in the same hospital were instructed to make a special report of anyone with injuries related to tear gas, baton beatings or bullet wounds likely to have been inflicted by armed forces or police. <br />
<br />
Human rights groups are documenting many cases of people being taken from their homes by military units at night, after taking part in demonstrations. It is repeatedly claimed by victims and human rights groups that profiles of protestors adn opposition activists are provided to the authorities by their neighbours who work on government programmes like Vida Mejor (Better Life), and the presumption is that they are obliged to provide this information on their neighbours. Army then arrive at night and call opposition members out by their names and nicknames - and use force to gain entry if they don’t come out.
