Mongolia
Introduction
NCF started the cooperation with the National Center for Mother and Child Health of Mongolia in 2009. In the past 10 years, we supported the Mongolia team to build a Craniofacial team (Surgeons, Orthodontist, Anesthesiologist, and Speech Therapist) and came to Taiwan for cleft lip and cleft training. We also had cleft medical missions together and donated the nasal endoscopy to benefit the cleft patients in Mongolia.
