AURORA FORUM: Making Connections: Photographic Storytellers from Around the World

The National Geographic Society's All Roads Photography Program recognizes and supports talented indigenous and underrepresented photographic storytellers from around the world who are documenting their changing cultures and communities through photography. The program provides a forum for photographers to showcase their work to a global audience with the opportunity to engage and experience, firsthand, the unique and essential voices of these artists through exhibitions, public discussions, and workshops.

In this Aurora Forum conversation we meet all four of this year's All Roads Photography Program awardees: Saiful Huq (Bangladesh), Larry McNeil (Tlingit Nation), Sandra Sebastián Pedro (Guatemala), and Newsha Tavakokian (Iran). They will be joined by celebrated South African photographer Peter Magubane, Andy Patrick, founder and executive director of the Fifty Crows Foundation for Social Change Photography, and National Geographic Society photographer Chris Rainer. These photographers will present their work and discuss ways their images and stories make connections that help create a more just and beautiful world.
