Lhamu Tsering conducts a Pendeba meeting in front of ancient, and now-eroded, watch towers in the Dingri area of Qomolangma Preserve. Among other tasks, Pendebas attempt to work with the residents of their villages to clarify what the villagers would like to do in terms of agricultural improvements, health care, education, and income generation.
This class session took place during 2010 Pendeba Training with the founder of the Pendeba Society, Norbu Tsering
The skills Pendebas are equipped with directly affect health in the home—improving the lives of young babies and children.
