Eugenio Scannavino Neto: Health and Happiness

He took his doctor's bag from village to village, sometimes a two day trip along the river, so remote were the settlements. And he always treated the same illnesses: dysentery epidemics, caused by drinking the dirty river water. The malnourished children often failed to survive. But that was 15 years ago. Now Eugenio rarely works as a doctor; instead he runs his "Saude e Alegria", or "Health and Happiness" project, which has transformed the lives of more than 150 communities in the Santarem region. We joined the 49 year-old social entrepreneur.
