Photo Title	Making mosquito repellant
Photo Description	This photo was taken at the Kaedi lycee in southern Mauritania, in July 2007. The girls in the photo are participating in EcoHealth Camp, a week of activities organized by Peace Corps volunteers focused on health, AIDS, and environmental education, as well as sports and games. Because two girls from every village with a volunteer are invited, with chaperones, the girls meet, often for the first time, with girls from distant parts of their own country. The girls are making "Neem Creme", a mosquito repellent made out of the leaves of the neem tree. Oumrana, the girl stirring with her hand, is a black Moor from the south eastern Trarza region, the girl holding her arm, is a white moor from farther north.
