Educación y medicina con las comunidades
Beth Dever, Omar Blaik, George Smith, and George W. McCarthy
February 2015, Spanish
A las grandes instituciones, como universidades, hospitales y organizaciones sin fines de lucro, se les suele llamar “anclas”, debido a su permanencia y a los lazos estabilizadores que generan, tanto en lo físico como en lo social, con las comunidades circundantes.
