The reference to the size of Tribhuvandas Foundation, being probably the largest community owned health organisation in Asia, is from the opening address of the Chairperson of the National Dairy Development Board, Dr.(Ms) Amrita Patel - " Tribhuvandas Foundation, which is Asia’s largest NGO, works in over 600 villages in the State in the field of maternal and infant care. What is unique about the programme of the Foundation is that it rides on the back of milk. It is the village milk co-operative that appoints a village health worker and pays an honorarium to the village health worker to undertake the work. So it is milk paying for health." See link http://www.ilri.org/InfoServ/Webpub/Fulldocs/South_South/Ch03.htm This workshop, the first South–South workshop, on ‘Smallholder dairy production and marketing—Constraints and opportunities’, was jointly organised by ILRI and the National Dairy Development Board (NDDB) of India, with financial support from NDDB and the Australian Centre for International Agricultural Research (ACIAR). The workshop was held in Anand, headquarters of NDDB, from 13th to 16th March 2001. See link #REDIRECT Thttp://www.ilri.org/InfoServ/Webpub/Fulldocs/South_South/Ch02.htm
