At the Albert Einstein College of Medicine, a program entitled 'Simian Aides' enables physically disabled patients to use the services of monkeys. A system of reward and punishment teaches the monkeys to fetch food and drink, newspapers and books. The patients use laser beams to indicate what they want.
The Develop programs include the 6x6 Global Talent Program, the African Photojournalism Database, and the Joop Swart Masterclass.
