Benefits of attending an anamed seminar in Natural Medicine

After the seminar, participants will be able to recognise at least 20 medicinal plants, to use and construct a solar oven, to produce different soaps, different medicinal oils and ointments, black stones for snake-bites....and, most important of all, will be able to treat  Malaria effectively with medicinal plants like Artemisia annua. Each participant will be given seeds and be taught how to grow this delicate plant. 

The following are important aspects of our seminars:

  • Our emphasis on working at the grass-roots, encouraging and supporting local people in developing and extending the skills they already have.
  • We encourage traditional healers and formal health workers such as doctors and nurses to work together. We help them to recognise the positive contribution that each makes, and encourage them to work out practical ways in which they can cooperate.
  • By introducing Artemisia annua, healers, pastors, missionaries and health workers become much more independent and successful in their treatment of malaria.

The following are the conditions of attendance

It is important that, following the seminar, all participants have a commitment to

  • establishing a garden of medicinal plants,
  • making some Natural Medicines themselves,
  • treating themselves and others with these Natural Medicines, and 
  • to teaching others, for example by conducting a similar seminar in Natural Medicine themselves, at least for a weekend.
  • It must be made clear to all prospective participants that participants receive no fees for their attendance.
  • Transport costs must be met by the participants, their employer or sponsor.
  • All seminar participants will work together in practical work and in establishing a garden. They must bring suitable clothes with them for such activities.
  • Participants must attend for the entire programme; to come only on some days is not acceptable.
  • Those participants who have a bible should bring it. Anamed is a Christian organization. We start every morning with a biblical reflection. Each participant is invited to.
  • All participants should bring plant material of up to five medicinal plants from their region.
