The creation of this video came from our recent wonderful discovery of Photoshare.org — a digital imagery archive of thousands of global health and international development photos — hosted by ‘Knowledge for Health’ — K4Health. While exploring this website, we found hundreds of excellent photos featuring the work of nurses and midwives from around the world.
So — to celebrate the 2013 International Year of the Nurse — and to remember the work of our colleagues year round — we created this short video for your enjoyment. In just 90 seconds, we feature digital images from 18 nations around the world. We found these photos both inspiring and informative! We have so much to share! Now, we can be ‘Daring to Tell our Stories to the World!’ |

To create this 90-second music track for non-commercial use only, our all-volunteer non-profit team has accessed excerpts from the 'Jupiter' theme of 'The Planets' by Gustav Holst — performed by Concertgebouw Orchestra in Amsterdam with Neville Marriner, conducting. Philips Records recorded this music in 1977. We accessed this track from Archives.org 'Community Audio' of the Internet Archive, a digital library of Internet sites and other cultural artifacts in digital form.
But, the Philips Record label no longer exists. So now, our team is researching to discover who would now own this copyright and — if this person or group can be found — we will be happy to write and ask permission for this use. For now, we send much appreciation to the Concertgebouw Orchestra, Conductor Sir Neville Marriner and Philips Records for creating this beautiful and elegant recording!
