    Tommy Trenchard, Sierra Leone

A year ago Sierra Leone's 'burial boys' were students, taxi drivers or
unemployed. Now they take on the dangerous and traumatic task of
burying Ebola's victims, and in doing so preventing further infections from
unsafe burials. Their work has been key to bringing the outbreak under
control.
