Towards A New Beginning (Thread 1/5) My pride, belief and love for the people of Bangladesh, has always overridden any sadness I felt for our lives not being what we all deserved to have. All my life I felt the disbalance, and for the last 22 years it is what I craved for them

My thoughts are with fire victims in #RohingyaCamp . All who have again lost possessions shall have to rebuild from nothing. Ashes remain of our learning center in Camp 11. A dark moment for us all. Little children shall wait once more for lessons to start and life to continue.

I was first introduced to @Yann_A_B when he was searching for heroes all over the world for ‘VU DU CIEL’ series. His art of capturing the need to protect environment & people fascinated me. That was the start of our friendship- striving together to build a climate-resilient world
