PORTRAIT 5
Dr. Jaya Moitra
Caring with compassion, acting with conviction
Present since the opening of the Shechen clinic in Jharkhand in 2020, Doctor Jaya Moitra is a radiant personality at Karuna. Her background, nurtured by years working for various NGOs, resonates with the humanist vision of Matthieu Ricard, who inspired her to join our action. She and Dr Nikita Arun were able to exchange views on the subject.
​
As she recounts the benefits of the Kitchen Garden programs, her daily days at the clinic and her entry into Karuna, Dr. Jaya offers us a glimpse into her life as a doctor in a region where a quarter of India's population still has no access to healthcare.
You too can help improve the health of Indian communities
