The Pain Project

The Pain Project is an ongoing investigation into the lack of access to morphine, the gold standard for treating pain. network in the fall.

The Pain Project, produced by the International Reporting Program at the University of British Columbia’s Graduate School of Journalism, reveals the causes -- and devastating effects -- of the lack of access to pain medication around the globe. A team of students and faculty from the International Reporting Program at the University of British Columbia’s Graduate School of Journalism traveled to India, Ukraine and Uganda to investigate how, faced with this lack of access, such countries manage the pain of patients suffering from cancer and other terminal diseases. The IRP, which began in 2008, is the result of a gift from Alison Lawton and Mindset Social Innovation Foundation and offers graduate students of the School an opportunity to tell stories of underreported issues around the world. The Pain Project includes a documentary for Al Jazeera, "Freedom from Pain," which aired on July 20, 2011. A second magazine-style piece on the topic will air on a major U.S.
