The Jaffa Photography Project

Phil and I have been thinking about Kindness and how to develop the project in the next couple of years. Ideas are slowly forming and inspiration sometimes lands on your lap; recently my wonderful sister sent me a link to this exciting project in the Israeli city Jaffa. ‘The Jaffa Photography Project teaches photography to Arab and Jewish teenagers, allowing them to document their homes, lives and communities for themselves, and aiming to lay a foundation for future peace.” http://www.photovoice.org/html/projects/forumprojects/jaffa.html
Leila Segal is a writer and photographer, working on community art projects in London and the Middle East.
