Seeing Challenges Within

This video is about a medical device (a portable ultrasound tool) and a clinical officer working in a Kenyan informal settlement (a slum).

It’s a story that introduces you to several different people, and as you watch the video, try and imagine some of the challenges that each person faces.

Looking at your list of challenges, are there advantages that are associated with the challenges? For example, might it be that living in a slum means being part of a close community that allows people to rely on each other?

Now think about the people you know where you live. What challenges do they face? Are some of the challenges the same?
