Being a photographer / photo-pedagogue and trainer for nonviolent conflict transformation, I deeply engage against social and invironmental injustices or suppert people engaged in these struggles.
Having been starting as a photo journalist in the early 90s mainly in Germany and South Africa I realized in 1994 while working as a documentary photographer for UNHCR the limitiations to work on conflicts and being restricted to work in conflicts. Later working on conflicts with former child soldiers in Mozambique I realized the power of combining the two approaches towards a more comprehensive approach of working on conflict.
Since 2008 I work additionally with cross-media (audio-slideshows) and participatory photography and participatory video. Starting in 2009 I filmed and edited the first dialogue-film to work on prejudices between the two groups present in the film in cooperation with Mozambican producers.
