About normal abnormal workdays and their challenges
While in Germany, at the end of November, people had to face the sudden onset of winter, the physician Sabine Kirchner found herself in Central Africa in mainly sunny weather, only at times interrupted by heavy downpours of rain. The general practitioner from the Erzgebirge [Ore Mountains, Eastern Germany], served as a humedica volunteer in Uganda, where she provided medical treatment for refugees on the border to the neighbour country of Kongo. She experienced that the normality of a workday in Uganda looked very different from that of a workday in Germany.
