Personal stories of struggle and success in fight for Millennium Development Goals

There's been a lot of talk about the Millennium Development Goals this week, with both the UN in session and the Clinton Global Initiative running in New York. And in the midst of the policy discussion about the goals and their future, an innovative production company called Purple States is working to put a personal face on the goals. By getting cameras in the hands of people around the world, they've produced a series of "MDG Vignettes" that chronicle the struggles and success of those fighting for better lives.
