Sara Gomez was a 2000-01 Hart Fellow based in Ahmedabad,
India, with SEWA (Self Employed Women's Association). She worked
with their child care department documenting, through writing and
photography, the child care program and its Effectiveness Initiative.
Since her return, she has created an exhibit based on this work,
some of which appears on this web site. Her work is also featured
in the new book, Together We Do Good Work: SEWA's Child-Care
Program in Gujarat, India, published by the Lewis
Hine Documentary Initiative at the Center for Documentary Studies
in association with the Hart Leadership Program.
Sara graduated from Duke in 2000. She majored in Comparative Area
Studies with a focus on Africa and Latin America. She spent the
fall semester of her junior year in Madagascar, studying ecology
and conservation through the School for International Training.
After her Hart Fellowship, she mentored children at the Green River
Preserve, an environmental summer camp in North Carolina. She then
traveled to Ecuador to work with a sustainable development project.
She is currently attending the University of North Carolina-Chapel
Hill in pursuit of a master's of public health in maternal and child
health.
