Why Are Poor Countries Poor?
In which John looks at the vicious cycles of poverty and poor health in Sierra Leone, including how the ebola crisis happened and why a center of diamond mining has become one of the poorest regions in the world.
For the last year and a half, Hank and I have been working on a big, long-term project with Partners in Health Sierra Leone. Sierra Leone has the highest maternal mortality rate in the world, and one of the highest child mortality rates, and we believe that can change with long-term investments in Sierra Leone's healthcare system. The project will be announced later this month, and this video explores some of the why.
Thanks to Jon Lascher at Partners in Health for the pictures of the Koidu Government Hospital before PIH arrived, and for taking a look at this script. Thanks also to Rosianna Halse Rojas for her help with images and editorial guidance. Any mistakes are mine alone.
