Dear friends, we would like to update you on our mini fundraiser for "Unlearning the Ordinary: through a lens for the commons" book.
“Unlearning the Ordinary: through a lens for the commons*” is documentation of what might, should or does matter.
The book features photo stories by women and girls from 9 countries and many more nationalities, their age ranging from 14-64, who participated in our workshops between 2015-2020, and have documented stories important to them.
Our goal was to get copies of the book into libraries in the communities where the photographs were taken. Thanks to your support and generocity we were able to print 20 books and send the first batch out! We hope to be able to send the rest of the books soon as we raise the raimender of the necessary funds, and find somebody who will deliver the book to Lebanon as no post is going there right now. If you know someone travelling to Lebanon from Europe soon - please get in touch if you would like to help.
Thanks for being with us and believing in the importance of these stories.
Warm wishes.
Jekaterina
