Wapishana as a first language.

RAM founder and director Stan Brock, who spent over fifteen years living and working in the South Rupununi many decades ago still speaks fluent Wapishana.

It was the during those years in the isolated savannas and rain forest that the idea for the volunteer medical organization was born.

Here he chats with children in Aishalton village, many of whom speak the language every day at home.
