Launching Photo Voice Project!!

SAFE 2012 International Practicum Student, Serena Rodriguez, launched a brand new project for SAFE this summer called "Photo Voice." In this initiative, rural men and women were trained in the basics of photography, then given digital cameras to "show what maternal and child health meant" to them. In the picture below, some of the photos taken during the project are being viewed by village women at a health fair, which is having the desired effect of stimulating conversation about maternal and child health, the challenges rural communities face, and some of the current and/or potential solutions to improving them! Way to go Photo Voice, and Serena Rodriguez!!
