After the earthquake of april the 25th, the humanitarian situation is extremely serious. Lack of housing, of schools, basic necessities, water and gas. Also the internal situation is unstable as well as relations with India. With UNICEF for the SchweizerFamilie magazine we traveled to collect testimonies of children. The portraits tell of desperate determination, courage, despite uncertainties. Without (auto-) commiseration. ©UNICEF|Reto Albertalli/phovea — nepal; kind; portrait

Projektbeschrieb

Dopo il terremoto del 25.04 la situazione umanitaria è gravissima. Mancano case, scuole, generi di prima necessità, acqua, gas e la situazione interna è instabile così come i rapporti con l'India. Con UNICEF per SchweizerFamilie Mag abbiamo viaggiato per raccogliere testimonianze di bambini. I ritratti ne raccontano disperata determinazione, coraggio malgrado incertezze. Senza commiserazione.
