Abstract

MAHOMED, Zeyn; MOOLLA, Muhammad; MOTARA, Feroza  and  LAHER, Abdullah. A Somalia mission experience. SAMJ, S. Afr. med. j. [online]. 2012, vol.102, n.8, pp.659-660. ISSN 2078-5135.

In August 2011, the Gift of the Givers Foundation mobilised what was to become the largest humanitarian mission ever conducted by an African organisation. Almost a year later, the effort continues, changing the face of disaster medicine as we know it.
