| Introduction | Maureen is an award-winning photographer who is passionate about the world and intrigued by cultures and customs. She is a development manager at Australia for UNHCR - the United Nations Refugee Agency and last year was fortunate enough to travel to the Chad/Sudan border and meet with refugees from Darfur who have sought refuge in twelve camps along the Eastern Chad border. She wants to use her photography to help restore the dignity of marginalised people from all walks of life by photographing them and telling their personal stories about survival and coping against the odds. These people are inspiring and deserve our respect. She is headed to Afghanistan on July 9th to photograph orphans living in Kabul about the realist of childhood in Afghanistan. |
