Abstract:
Faced with an intercultural and globalized world characterized by great inequality between countries, there are still several regions lacking even the most basic of needs. International cooperation can be a useful tool in raising awareness of other issues in the world of health and help develop projects with measurable objectives adjusted to the situation that it is trying to change. The aim of this project is to carry out a community health diagnosis in Typ, a rural area in the Touba region, Senegal (Africa) to learn about its problems and shortcomings. To carry it out, a mixed study of qualitative typology has been prepared: through an ethnographic analysis through participant observation, a journal and semi-structured interviews; with a retrospective and cross-sectional observational study of the patient registry of the medical consultation. With the present investigation, it has been noted that the Senegalese health system is proven to have many deficiencies such as a lack medical-surgical, diagnostic and pharmacological material and also in terms of its infrastructure and health personnel, with rural areas being worse affected. In order to assess the conditions, carrying out a community health diagnosis has been recognised as something that was urgently required, in which the concept of cross-cultural nursing has been key in understanding the community in which it works and the meaning it implies regarding the health-disease-death process.
