Nomad's Mobile Health Team in Nangarhar province. The purpose of Nomad's Mobile Health Team (MHT) is to provide primary health care services to the Kuchis, a nomad population. The Kuchis are mostly Pashto – speaking people, mainly from the south and east of Afghanistan, who have traditionally been nomadic, pastoralists. They spent the winter months in the lowlands and migrated to the pastures of the central highlands during the summer months. Before the introduction of roads and truck companies in the 1950s and 1960s, their camel caravans were important means of trading goods across Afghanistan. Their way of life has changed much during and since the wars. As a result of land mines and the severe droughts of 1971-72 and 1998-2002, the Kuchis are said to have lost 75% of their livestock. The traditional system of pasture rights seems to have lost its power. The most applicable and useful strategy to provide health services to Kuchis are mobile health teams. A team is composed by one male medical Doctor certified by Ministry of Education, one Midwife or Female Doctor, one or two vaccinator, and one Community Health Supervisor.
