To create awareness about tuberculosis (TB) among the Muthuvan tribespeople of the first tribal grama panchayat at Edamalakkudy under the Munnar wildlife division in Idukki, the district TB office has prepared a health travelogue.
According to officials, the health travelogue “Edamalakudy: An unparalleled journey” was directed by district TB officer B. Cency and Sakhil Raveendran. According to them, the travelogue is an innovative attempt to capture the unseen life of Edamalakudy and to eliminate TB.
The heath video focussing on Edamalakudy is touted to be the first-of-its-kind initiative at the national level. It is an innovative attempt at creating awareness about TB among the tribes and the general public.
