Carolina Global Photography Banner Contest

Congratulations to our 2013 Banner Contest Winner!

Mayan Ladder
Golden Stream, Belize

"Usually when I am building something, and I can't find a ladder, I give up.  James, a Kekchi Mayan man I worked with this summer, did not let a missing ladder slow his work of installing solar panels on a local school house.  Elegantly perched on a board propped perilously against a wall, James' feet tell stories of his life.  Bringing young children light, computers and hope, one step at a time."

--Tait Chandler, Undergraduate Student, Global Studies and Environmental Studies
