From 2008-2011, I followed the lives of 9-year-old Congolese refugee Bill Clinton Hadam, his family, and his school, in a real-time, print and multimedia series for The Christian Science Monitor.  The series was honored with numerous awards, and travel was funded by the Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting.
