Photo Credit Brian Chu 09MPH was amazed by the women he met in Ghana in summer 2008. His photo depicts the son of a Ghanian woman with Health Keepers, a group that purchases and resells health protection items such as mosquito nets and water treatment tablets. Chu's photo was among the 2009 winners in the Emory Global Health Institute's student photography contest. Chu, a Dean's Scholar, now works with the Task Force for Global Health.
