January 2009 - Pictures from MIAM

In January, MIAM was the proud recipient of a "Certificate of Excellence" from the Zambian Ministry of Health, "in appreciation for your exceptional leadership and valuable contribution to the fight against malaria in Zambia."

This recognition is only made possible by the many MIAM staff that work tirelessly to accomplish our vision of a malaria-free Zambia. So this month, in the pictures below, we are pleased to randomly highlight some our more than fifty staff members.
