In other global health related news, my photo recently won 2nd place in the “Critical Global Issues” category at the 2012 Queen’s University International Centre Photo Contest. It was taken while on clinical outreach in the town of Suhum in Ghana’s Eastern Region during my Unite For Sight placement. In the background, a colorful crowd of community members can be seen patiently waiting to see the ophthalmologist—literally united for sight.
A gala exhibition/awards ceremony was held for the winning photos and it provided me with the perfect opportunity to discuss issues of global health and the Unite For Sight program with those in attendance.
