From the kivu site I found this very interesting case study showing cooperation between indigenous knowledge and modern science. Both sides found great benefits from working together and community clinics were opened. The status of indigenous women has been enhanced greatly.
This site below isn't recent but it talks about the same indigenous knowledge that is mentioned above. It also shows western medicine learning from these indigenous women.
