<p>Health security is increasingly being seen as integral to any poverty reduction strategy.

Of all the risks facing poor households, health risks probably pose the greatest threat to their lives and livelihoods. Against this background, this research examines the vital subject of participation in mutual health insurance as a poverty reduction strategy at the rural community level.

On average 322 million people worldwide are affected by depression. It is one of the leading causes of death in the United States and is often paired with anxiety.

Typical alternative methods are talk therapy and acupuncture, which brings me to my question: Are anti-depressants truly the most effective way to treat depression or are they ultimately the most cost effective for patients suffering from the mental illness because they are the type of treatmen

The study thus sought to explore the possibility of developing a sustainable Micro Health Insurance Scheme in the
