Editor's Notes

  • #2 This photo was taken of a sixteen-year-old mother with her newborn in Lacor Hospital in the town of Gulu, located in the northwest of Uganda. Gulu has been flooded with nearly one and a half million Internally Displaced Persons (IDP), who live in over 20 camps in which HIV prevalence is high, life expectancy low, and poverty deep.
