Fuji, Japan) is a Visual Anthropologist whose work includes mental health issues in the developing world for the World Health Organization, and agricultural development in Burkina Faso for the World Bank.  A six-year grantee of the Ford Foundation for his work on urban equity, he has also consulted for the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation on the role of technology in social change.
