Bamako, Mali: Bright Young People & The Trash Brick

WhatTookYouSoLong
In Bamako we meet and document the work of the Mali Health Project (MHOP), a grassroots NGO working with slum dwellers on the city’s edge. MHOP was founded 5 years ago by a visionary 19 year old American student volunteering in Mali, Caitlin Cohen, and in this short time has been integral in creating contact between a once forgotten community and the local government, and dramatically improved child mortality rates and basic standards of public health amongst some of Mali’s most vulnerable people.
