What
are there in the North Catholic Health Conference? |
As already
reported previously, CHC (Catholic Commission for Health Pastoral
Care) under the Catholic Bishops' Conference of Thailand, helped the
establishment of the Catholic Health Committee of the north in 2006
with the objective of networking of all the Catholic institutions
working on health in order to exchange their views, improving their
work efficiency, developing the staff's potential in relation with
various targeted groups, such as the youth, women, the elderly, the
disabled, the HIV-contracted persons and the ethnics, and also providing
pastoral care for the working staff so that they may have the spirit
of love and service toward the suffering human beings. |
In this
year of 2007 the Catholic North Health Committee organized a conference
for all the group members on 22-24 March at the Chiengmai Pastoral
Center. Topics of the conference consist of: structure of Chiengmai
diocese, health situation in the north, health situation in the national
health welfare system, teaching of the Church on the value of life
and sex, and planning for health activities with regards to the youth,
women, ethnics and staff workers who work with the HIV/AIDS persons.
All the resolutions derived thereof will be followed up and helped
by the Catholic North Health Committee to accomplish their end. |
As for the
development of potential of the health staff and volunteers which
will be expedited by CHC is as follows: lessons learned from the work,
spiritual renewal, exposure trip on AIDS activities within the institutions
and the community, sufficiency economy, villagers' occupation, sex
education, value of life, death, formation of personnel who will help
others, website, CD and support for seminars. |
