June 21, 2006 -A child sleeps during a class about anatomy at a school for traditional medicine. About a hundred students -- local healers, but also patients with AIDS looking for traditional treatments -- gather weekly under a glittering canopy at Dr.Sekagya's school for traditional medecine. Along with the basics of hygiene and anatomy, students study the identification and use of local plants. Meanwhile, spiritualists chant, dance and drum to call down spirits and consult them for cures. Photo by Evelyn Hockstein
