Meeting the Maasai

Date: Friday, Oct 27 2017 - Tuesday, Nov 28 2017
Venue: HOURS
Artists
Philip Field

In March 2017 photographer Philip Field visited northern Tanzania and took some wonderful photographs to help African Initiatives illustrate the last 20 years that they have been working there. Come and see the pictures, learn about Maasai pastoralists and buy a unique print for a good cause.

All proceeds to the Bristol-based African Initiatives, a women’s rights NGO supporting sustainable initiatives, identified and implemented by Africans.

Over the last two decades they have become specialists in working with Maasai communities in northern Tanzania, helping to make women’s voices heard and opening the door for girls to go to school. Together with grassroots partners, African Initiatives builds the capacity of individuals and communities so that they can lift themselves out of poverty.
