REACHING THE ISLAND

“Amidst rampant teenage pregnancy and disease, watch how one community came together to tackle sexual health taboos in our short film.”

WHO

We travelled to Lake Bangweulu in Zambia to cover the amazing work of VSO International.

WHAT

VSO have been working tirelessly over 3 years to educate Mbabala Island on the dangers of underage sex and the importance of contraception.

We spent a few days on the lake visiting the local educators they have recruited, the medical team and the amazing volunteers who have successfully seen a drop in underage pregnancies and STI rates, and a rise in school attendance rates.
