A photography exhibition titled "The Edge of Hope Exhibition" will be held in Dhaka from June 20-27 marking the World Refugee Day 2024 with a view to draw the attention to the life of the Rohingya people.

The week-long event will start off with an opening ceremony on the first day of the exhibition, followed by a series of engaging activities including a career workshop on June 24, a photography workshop on June 26 and a closing ceremony on June 27.

Amal Foundation, a Bangladeshi non-profit with a sustainable development mantra, will host the exhibition at the British Council premises. The exhibition will run from 9am to 5pm every day.

The exhibition aims to feature the captivating photographs of renowned and acclaimed photographers Anthony Dawton from the UK and Jim McFarlane from Australia.

They have collaboratively documented the resilience of Rohingya and climate refugees living in Bangladesh, said the organizers.

The exhibition will serve as a window into the lives of these individuals, highlighting the enduring hope amidst their struggles.

Through their lenses, the photographs will portray the dignity, unity, and hope that define the strength of the refugees.

Representatives from various government and non-government organizations, universities, and media houses will be in attendance.

The exhibition will be open for all throughout the week, providing a unique opportunity to engage with the powerful stories captured in the photographs.

This exhibition aims to bring attention to the plight of refugees, reminding us of their struggles and the hope that persists even in the direst circumstances.

It seeks to reignite our awareness and honor the strength and resilience of these vulnerable populations.
