“African Workplaces” 20-30 April at the Alliance Française!

The “African Workplaces” exhibition, organized and curated by IFRA and CFEE, will be shown in April 2022 at the Alliance Française in Nairobi.
It was first exhibited in Addis Ababa in October 2021, then at the Institute Français in Bujumbura, Burundi in February 2022.
The exhibition asks:
What do we see and know about labour in Africa? What images draw the gaze of photographers and researchers? What images do we wish to transmit, and to which audience? What can we say, in just a few paragraphs, about the topic of labour on the African continent?
It is part of a broader scientific reflection that seeks to address and answer these questions (https://addisvisual. sciencesconf.org/ and https://www.sources-journal.org/522).
The nine photographers and researchers gathered in this exhibition come from a variety of backgrounds; they are informed by the places they have seen and the experiences they have lived there. They all offer their own specific image(s) of labour in Africa.
