This multimedia piece from NPR: Life After Ebola is beautiful act two story. I love the interview with the psychologist about how communities define and develop resilience. It's fantastic to see that the media is taking the opportunity to cover Ebola post-epidemic. The piece addresses the sorrow and the loss felt in the village. People are traumatized and the recovery will take time. It felt really honest and authentic and using audio interviews of the people's own voices is really powerful. The photos are stunning. It's effective because it gives me a sense of what people are doing now, how they are rebuilding and how they are processing their grief. Unfortunately, many are in survival mode so it will take even longer to process the emotional pain.
