women, I feel hope

The UN has partnered with local women photographers, who are not only documenting the stories of women striving to build peace in their communities, but who also share in those very struggles themselves. “When I capture the faces and voices of these women, I feel hope and pride,” said Malian photographer Kani Sissoko. “This work allows me to [have a] dialogue with the future generation, to show that a woman belongs anywhere and not only at home.”
