Dear Sarita, (and All),
In asking about Nepal's 123 languages - https://en.wikipedia.org/ wiki/Languages_of_Nepal - I was glad to learn that many studies related to yours could be done in Nepalese.
Here are some photos about women and health care in Nepal, and rural health care as well:

See, too:
Let's stay in touch about planned online Medical Schools and online teaching hospitals partly in a realistic virtual earth (e.g. for tele-robotic surgery, genetic engineering, and Electronic Medical Records / Health Insurance) there - https://wiki. worlduniversityandschool.org/ wiki/World_University_Medical_ School and https://wiki. worlduniversityandschool.org/ wiki/Hospital - in these regards (emerging potentially out of Stanford Medicine / Law OpenCourseCourse or similar, - since MIT has neither a Medical nor a Law School) - and CC-4 MIT OCW is in 5 languages to begin - https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/ translated-courses/.
Hoping to see you again at another aparc.fsi.stanford.edu talk or elsewhere at Stanford. Thank you again for your inspiring talk, and your focus on helping / studying the poorest Nepalis re health care.
All the best, Scott

Thank you so much Scott and thank you all for your presence, and valuable feedback and comments.
Yes, I would like to be in touch with Nepal related work.
Kindest regards,

Dear Sarita, and All,
Thanks so much for your kind reply.
Here's the beginning of Nepal World University and School - https://wiki. worlduniversityandschool.org/ wiki/Nepal - planned in the Nepali language(s) itself from https://wiki. worlduniversityandschool.org/ wiki/Nepali and https://wiki. worlduniversityandschool.org/ wiki/Newar_/_Nepal_Bhasa - and the other 121 languages there as well - https://wiki. worlduniversityandschool.org/ wiki/Languages . (Am including Bishwo in this email, a friend from some years ago, whom I met online, who is Nepali and studies computer science and related based in Nepal (Hi Bishwo!), and who is also on the World Univ & Sch open participatory Monthly Business Meeting emailings.
Thank you, Sarita, too for posting your presentation slides - https://fsi-live.s3.us-west- 1.amazonaws.com/s3fs-public/ stanford_presentation_sarita_ panday.pdf (here - https://aparc.fsi.stanford. edu/events/health-policy- nepal-role-community-health- workers).
With an interest in a realistic virtual earth for medicine, clinics, hospitals and medical schools - for online clinical research and clinical care - I tried to find your two field sites, but couldn't here in Nepal - https://www.google.com/maps/ place/Nepal/@27.0255563,84. 2975025,8z/data=!4m5!3m4! 1s0x3995e8c77d2e68cf: 0x34a29abcd0cc86de!8m2!3d28. 394857!4d84.124008 . I was able to find however, as a starting place, Kathmandu Model Hospital
https://www.google.com/maps/ place/Kathmandu+Model+ Hospital/@27.7025456,85. 3201618,15z/data=!4m5!3m4! 1s0x0:0x7e58f1cea3c0c6ed!8m2! 3d27.7025456!4d85.3201618 ( here https://en.wikipedia.org/ wiki/List_of_hospitals_in_ Nepal). I'm interested in exploring how at World University and School Medicine, in the Nepalese language, a hypothetical Stanford Medicine could begin with Stanford's / Google's / Duke University's Project Baseline (and Project ECHO too) to begin to develop a physical medical relationship with this hospital and clinics in Nepal as well, brainstorming-wise and conceptually.
Looking forward to staying in touch, and thanks for your far-reaching presentation, Sarita!
With very best wishes, Scott

Dear Roland and Robert,
Thanks so much for your recent support, Roland, when I mentioned in Stanford Law CodeX that World University and School had gotten the green light to license with the state of California's Bureau of Private Postsecondary Education (BPPE); and, thanks, too, Robert, for making it possible for World University and School to become a collaborator with the Stanford Center for Digital Health, of which you're its Director - http://med.stanford.edu/cdh. html.
As you know, World University and School, like Wikipedia in ~300 languages with MIT OCW in 5 languages, is seeking to develop online university degrees and clinical teaching hospitals in each of all ~200 countries' official and main languages, based on CC-4 MIT OpenCourseWare in 5 languages: Bachelor, Ph.D., Law and M.D. But MIT has neither a law school nor a medical school, and hence no related MIT OpenCourseWare which could be developed for online degrees.
Unfortunately, the $250,000 National Science Foundation award which I thought World University and School was granted - WUaS heard about this in January, and went ahead and procured a DUNS number as a next step in the funding process - has not come through, per a communication on Monday from the Program Administrator at the NSF.
So I'm writing to seek your advice, guidance and for suggestions about how best to proceed. The initial BPPE licensing fee is $5,000 and as you may have seen from WUaS's Monthly Business Meeting News and Agenda, WUaS doesn't have anywhere near this amount of money in the bank - WUaS has been running on empty financially for about 12 years now (which has also allowed us to develop World University and School and the WUaS Corporation in a very lean way, and with very very low expenses). How best to proceed with finding funding? World University and School Medicine and Law are potentially significant growth stories for Stanford Medicine and Law re careers for MD and Law graduates, graduate students and staff - potentially even in all ~7,111 living languages.
As you may know as well, WUaS has two wings: A) non-profit 501 (c) 3 World University and School planned in ~200 countries and 7,111 living languages building on CC-4 MIT OCW, and B) a for-profit general stock company, the WUaS Corporation, also planned in ~200 countries and 7k languages. I just checked on the state of California's WUaS's Statements of Information (SI 550 and SI 100), and it looks like both wings are up to date as legal entities - https:// worlduniversityandschool. blogspot.com/2016/01/14- planned-wuas-revenue-streams. html. (And it doesn't look like the WUaS Corporation has to do anything with the US federal government, since I think the WUaS Corp is too small. The incorporation of the WUaS Co emerged out of a LawDroid AI chat bot presentation in Roland Vogl's Stanford Law CodeX meetings - and both wings together are a very remarkable growth opportunity! Thank you, Roland!
Roland and Robert, if I might ask you please, how would you suggest World University and School best find the initial funding to pay the BPPE fees, and then potential subsequent funding for accreditation, and, for example, to hire Stanford graduate student instructors to teach online to both MIT OCW and potentially Stanford faculty in group video in 'sections, conceptually? World University and School seeks to become the online Harvard, Stanford, MIT of the Internet, and in ~200 nation states and 7k languages, and Stanford's excellence could help inform this in so many great ways. Thank you.
Very Respectfully, Scott
