I just came across a research project called 'Imagining Famine" (www.imaging-famine.org) which explores the ethics of development photography. Pretty interesting, a topic that ironically receives little media attention. The project looks into how the agenda of a photographer/media company warps coverage of disaster situations.
Is anyone aware of fair trade photography groups aside from Kijiji Vision(www.kijiji.org), that support & promote indigenous photography? |

Yeah, I checked out Imagining Famine and Kijiji. Both are very cool. I added Kijiji to WiserEarth, and tried to add Imagining Famine, but their website is actually an Adobe Flash presentation. It looks impossible to copy and paste the mission statement. Maybe I'll add it just to make sure it gets into WiserEarth and someone someday will spend the time retyping the mission statement.

I just realized that Molly and I both spelled Imaging Famine wrong. We don't need to imagine famine.
