2022

A unique project in support of a collective of talented Rohingya photographers based in the world’s largest refugee camp. The project involved the design of a premium magazine employing the photographs captured by the Rohingya photographers. The work expanded to curating a virtual exhibition, designing the project website, fundraising, media monitoring and curating several exhibitions, including: Liberation War Museum in Dhaka to mark World Refugee Day in June 2022, Cox's Bazar Cultural Centre in September 2022 and the Head On Photo Festival in Sydney in November 2022.

This was a non-profit initiative aimed at providing the Rohingya youth with a creative platform, promoting self-expression through the medium of photography. A project to honour the strength, endurance and resilience of the Rohingya people.
