RESURGE – HEALTH CARE – ZAMBIA – PHOTO

Over the last forty five years, ReSurge International built health care capacity and provided more than 100,00 surgeries in developing countries. In September of 2015, I traveled with Dr. Goran Jovic, a reconstructive surgeon sponsored by ReSurge International, in Zambia. We worked together in Lusaka, the capital of the country, and Chitokoloki, a remote village in the northwest region of the country. Dr. Jovic is the only plastic surgeon in Zambia, a country with roughly fourteen million people. Unfortunately, burns and other medical issues that require reconstructive surgery are common. Dr. Jovic flies a small plane to support medical teams in hospitals throughout the country. ReSurge International’s sponsorship enables free surgical intervention for Dr. Jovic’s patients. Project goal: Still and video documentary support to assist in advocacy, fund raising, and awareness initiatives. Sample images from this project are below.
