Global Health Project - Pharmacovigilance for patients and informal practitioners

Project title: Global Health Project - Pharmacovigilance for patients and informal practitioners.

Aim: Free and open access to patient education material on commonly used drugs by patients to self medicate or given by informal healthcare practitioners.

Approach:

1) In the CBBLE ecosystem identify harmful practices (self-medication and informal practitioner-led) with reference to the case log link, document the patient journey, and follow up on the case. 

2) Critically appraise the evidence around the drug for the condition it was given for the case and document it along with info on benefits and harm.

3) In an easily understandable way (English and other regional languages possible) write educational content for the patients and informal practitioners.

4) (Optional) Explore the history/origin (global/local knowledge and belief) around the practice.


Outcome: An archive of educational resources translated into various regional languages by crowdsourcing medicos for creation and translation. (only KIMS college for now)
