Edith Kaphuka - Ngwale Village, Malawi (Global Lives Project, 2007)

Excerpt from the Global Lives Project http://globallives.org

Edith Kaphuka was a 13-year-old student at Domasi Mission Primary School in Zomba District, Malawi during her GLP shoot in 2007. The oldest of four girls, Edith has many responsibilities at her home in Ngwale Village, such as fetching water, cleaning the dishes, and gardening. Her little sister, Memory, is her best friend; when the two are together, they are nearly inseparable. While Edith and her family are Yao, they more readily speak Chichewa, Malawi's national language.
