“We pray for rain.”
In a world often preoccupied with the noise of its own progress, there are silent cries that go unheard – the cries of those suffering the devastating effects of drought and famine. This photographic essay delves into the harsh reality of areas heavily dependent on rain, now crippled by the merciless clasp of drought.
The stark, haunting visuals of cracked land and lifeless vegetation serve as a testament to the severity of the drought, compounded by a recent locust invasion that has left nothing but desolation in its wake.
At the heart of this crisis are the most vulnerable: malnourished children. The photographs tell their stories through their fragile forms and hollow eyes, a jarring reminder of the urgent need for humanitarian assistance. Families uprooted from their homes, cattle desperately in need of care, and a harsh, unforgiving ecosystem are vividly captured in these images.
