VOODOO & VACCINES




Culture Series ONE.

VBS/ ONE.org film collaboration documenting the country of Benin and it's traditional culture of Voodoo. 'There are more voodoo healers that physicians-and like much of the rest of the continent, for good reason, people seem wary of outsiders'

The communities are stuck in the tradition of believing in voodoo power to cure illness, though many organizations are pleading for these communities to seek medical help. It's footage like this that visually makes you witness strength and dedication. ' People will not abandon their tradition'



"Our goal with Voodoo and Vaccines is to raise awareness about the need for these vaccines, and to help add thousands of signatures to ONE.org’s campaign to get children of developing countries access to these most basic vaccines"
