At the 2012 Clinton Global Initiative (CGI) Annual Meeting today, Lake Tanganyika Floating Health Clinic (LTFHC), in collaboration with HP, announced its commitment to action to expand its radio network over the next two years in Africa’s Lake Tanganyika basin, home to nearly 20 percent of the world’s fresh water, as well as massive new mineral discoveries in East Central Africa.
