I have been in Nova Scotia, Canada since mid-June, working with the MY STORY photo project (MSppa) board to prepare an exhibition from the 2022 photo wokshops in Thailand. This will be the 17th MY STORY photo project exhibition in Annapolis Royal, Nova Scotia, Canada!
In November I wil return to Mae Sot, Thailand to facilitate photo workshops with Minmahaw Migrant Learning Center and Joy House Community Center. With two former MSppa participants, I will be helping Burmese refugees document their lives on the border through images and text.
In the meantime, I have been working with the PhotoVoice curriculum to address issues of gender violence, isolation, and discrimination that our participants face on the border.
This will be the last report for this project, as we will close it next month. But we will continue on GlobalGiving with a project focused on giving workshop participants the tools to advocate and speak about their lives on the border.
Stay tuned!
As always, thank you for your continuing support; we could not do it without you!
