We invite you to browse existing mHealth images and contribute your photos to Photoshare, a leading source for public health and development communication, focused on demonstrating the value and impact of photography in global health efforts to improve health and save lives. Photoshare, a service of the Knowledge for Health (K4Health) Project, based at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health Center for Communication Programs (JHU∙CCP), helps international nonprofit organizations communicate health and development issues through photography.
Within the Photoshare collection users can browse and access mHealth/eHealth specific images that are available upon request and free-of-charge for nonprofit and educational use. Images highlight mHealth projects and interventions and people they serve--for example, providers using mobile photos to support client interactions, monitor supplies to avoid stock-outs, and improve health systems. In addition to programmatic images, the Photoshare collection also offers documentation of mobile and communication technologies in low- and middle-income countries.
We'd like to ask you, our mHealth Knowledge users, to contribute your mHealth and eHealth specific images—joining amateur and professional photographers from around the world in sharing the realities of life in low- to middle-income countries. By contributing to Photoshare, you can monitor and track the value and usage of your shared images
—promoting your work and supporting international health and development organizations. Contributing photographers can easily upload images using Photoshare’s batch photo upload functionality or import photos directly from an existing Flcikr account. Shared images are eligible for Photoshare's annual awards and could be featured on the mHealth Knowledge website as well as other influential websites and publications.

We hope this new connection with the mHealth community will further expand the reach and impact of Photoshare images—creating new opportunities for improved photo-sharing related to mHealth- and eHealth-specific interventions around the world. We look forwarded to continuing this partnership and encouraging new contributions. If you have ideas for how Photoshare images could enhance your website or mHealth/eHealth projects, please contact us.
