Photography & Poverty Project

We are going to try and give the photographers a way to showcase their work. If you are a photographer and you can contribute to the Photography & Poverty Project, email me your stuff.

Everything does not have to relate to poverty. Reflective, thoughtful stuff of any kind is welcome. Although I will try and keep focus on poverty and social justice.

I have to say, I used to think that Westerners taking pictures of other parts of the world and then passing them around one another was a fairly jerk thing to do. I'm not sure I am entirely convinced otherwise. This is just to say that I am going into this with a bit of reluctance and with a lot of faith in the photographers' intentions. So far, given the kind of work I've seen, I am very heartened.

Eventually we will create a separate part of the site where everything will be collected.  The tag I will use will be "ppp."

Bloggers: the permanent link to the project is available here which you can put in your sidebar: http://eteraz.org/tag/ppp

How about Bosnia photos?(none / 0) (#1)

Not sure if I would actually call them poverty photos, though, but I have tons of photos where it looks like the war just happened.

I'll look through our collection (nearly 5,000 photos from this summer vacation) and see what I got.
