Critical Issues Facing Asia: Marking 60 Years

As part of the global dialogue, the Foundation has organized a photography exhibition, Critical Issues Facing Asia: Marking 60 Years. The exhibit features 14 international photographers and incredible imagery of the six critical issues the Foundation is actively addressing, including: lack of transparency and accountability in government; persistent poverty and rising income inequality; exclusion of women from political and economic life; ethnic and religious conflict; access to justice and human rights; disaster management, climate change, and water resource management. Photographers Conor Ashleigh, Sara Farid, and Ted Alcorn talk about their experiences capturing the critical issues facing Asia.
