http://www.lightstalkers.org/photographers-without-borders-italy Mission FotografiSenzaFrontiere (FSF) – onlus (PhotographersWithoutBorders, a Non-Profit Organization) opens permanent photographic labs wherever there is need – need for self-representation or to salvage memories, need to report or document, to train professional photographers, but also to offer dignity and self-esteem. Through these laboratories, the organization trains children and teenagers for a profession, so that they are not simply the subject of communication, but rather the lead actors in their own stories. The philosophy of FotografiSenzaFrontiere rests firmly on the conviction that the photographer can, and must, generate the force of seeing, thinking and doing. Doing, to make communication free and accessible to those who, until now, have only been subjected to it, so that in the near future, they can express their point of view. Often, in emergency situations, the most important thing that is lost is not food, or even health: it is identity. Restoring identity to those who have lost theirs is the objective of FotografiSenzaFrontiere. Because sometimes help means go over the limits of our look. Vision FotografiSenzaFrontiere, the Non-Profit Organization, aims to be a recognized and considered as an important interlocutor for the production of ethical, sustainable information, whose purpose is to educate others about the photographic image and cross-cultures, and to create experimental visual language laboratories. en-us Image feeds are temporarily unavailable due to heavy load on the Lightstalkers servers.
