Activities within the grant and expected
impact:
Bel-Air Hospital located in the hill station
of Panchgani, in Satara district of Maharashtra,
was one of the premier TB sanatoriums of
the country. This piece of medical history
of the country over time has transformed
into both TB and HIV/AIDS treatment, care
and support centre apart from addressing
the health of the people in the surrounding
areas. The support to the hospital allows
for renovation of five building blocks of
the historic structure to regain lost splendour
while improving patient treatment facilities.
