Photojournalist James Nachtwey, for the past three decades, has devoted himself to documenting wars, conflicts and critical social issues. However, when certain stories he wanted to cover - such as Romanian orphanages and famine in Somalia - garnered no interest from magazines, he self-financed trips there. In 2007, he was awarded the TED Prize, which comes with $100,000 and one wish to change the world. These photographs and this project are his wish, to tell the story of extremely drug-resistant tuberculosis (XDR-TB) and TB.
