Club Sanaa are crowdfunding to train a new generation of Tanzanian photographers
- Text by HUCK HQ
Participatory photography projects like PhotoVoice or Project Lives have shown how cameras can be powerful tools to empower communities to tell their own stories.
Club Sanaa are hoping to teach photography to marginalised young people at the Msamariakids Centre for Street Children in Moshi, Tanzania. If successful they have plan to teach other arts and roll out the project to other communities around the globe.
But they can’t do it without your help. They’ve launched a crowdfunding drive to make it happen, so head over to Kickstarter, find out more about the project and show your support.
