Mongolia
Introduction
NCF started the cooperation with the National Center for Maternal and Child Health of Mongolia in 2009. In the past 15 years, we supported the Mongolia team in building a craniofacial team (Surgeons, Orthodontists, Anesthesiologists, and Speech therapists) and came to Taiwan for cleft lip and cleft training. We also had cleft medical missions together and donated the nasal endoscopy, and surgical instruments to benefit the cleft patients in Mongolia.Background
