Exhibit Features David Rochkind's TB Photos

Saturday, March 10, 2012 (All day) to Saturday, March 24, 2012 (All day)

Pulitzer Center grantee David Rochkind's photographs will be displayed at "Global Health in Focus," an exhibition focusing on three of the most significant health challenges facing the world today: HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis and access to clean water. Rochkind has spent the past three years documenting the TB epidemic in Moldova, India and South Africa. He recently created an interactive educational website that features his photographs, his multimedia work on TB, and a curriculum for use in high school classrooms. Rochkind will also participate in a panel discussion “Why Global Health Matters” on Wednesday, March 7 at 6:00 pm.

The exhibition is hosted by the Photographic Resource Center (PRC) at Boston University as part of the PRC's Global Health Project. This project aims to educate the public on critical global health issues through documentary photography, allowing people to better understand the problems and possible solutions.
