Upcoming Conference & Exhibition in São Paulo:
Visible Rights: Photography for and by Youth
December 7-9, 2006 - São Paulo, Brazil
Centro Universitário Senac Campus Santo Amaro
Working with artists, educators, child rights advocates, and scholars,
Visible Rights: Photography for and by Youth will explore the role that
photography can play in facilitating childrens agency and promoting their
rights by placing cameras in the hands of youth, giving them the power of
self-representation. The goal for the conference is to identify best
practices among practitioners and scholars; to promote synergies in a
network of collaborations, publications, workshops, and internships; and to
encourage intervention through creative, non aggressive practices.
Speakers will include faculty from Harvard, Duke, Brown, Boston College,
NYU, Universidad Autónoma de México, Senac, and USP, as well as NGO pioneers
from Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Guatemala, Mexico, Thailand and the United
States.
This Cultural Agents conference is supported by the Lemann Fund of the
Harvard University Brazil Studies Program at the David Rockefeller Center
for Latin American Studies (DRCLAS), the Harvard Graduate School of
Education, the Centro Universitário Senac, UNESCO, and UNICEF.
