Foreword
The Eiffell Tower, a spectacular national monument oftenglorified in images, becomes an everyday backdrop forthose who pass by it every day. It is images whichtransform, rather than reinforce, our preconceptionswhich have the greatest impact upon us.
I have been privileged to visit so many places over thelast 20 years, but more so to have shared time, food andconversation with so many fascinating people.
From those encounters I have learned that there is acommonality between us all, despite our circumstances,that is easily forgotten and rarely mentioned. An averagefamily conversation over breakfast in a remote village inSierra Leone will normally be no different to one heldover breakfast in High Wycombe. It will be about theday ahead, organising meetings with friends and family,discussing school or what work the day has in store.
Despite the emotive images we consume on a daily basisthrough our television sets and newspapers, for the mostpart the poorest people simply ‘get on with life’: they donot spend every waking hour begging for help andbemoaning their situation.
We have become accustomed to a grossly simplifiedimpression of poverty, which tells us that we hold theanswers in our pockets. Packaged as entertainment,
I wonder if such simplifications serve to reinforcepreconceptions and maintain a status quo whichultimately harms, rather than helps, the poor.
Released from the burdens of unsustainable debt andunfair trade restrictions, dependence on charity andforeign aid could diminish, a context for bettergovernance would be created, and great strides forwardcould be made. Making that happen is an enormous anddaunting challenge, but it is achievable.
In the meantime, for over one billion people, povertyforms the monumental backdrop passed by each day. Inthat context it is their resourcefulness, resilience, anddignity that inspires the most. It is my hope that morethan a glimpse of that dignity is conveyed in these pages.
The images are not presented in chronological order.Instead, I have ordered and juxtaposed them to provokedifferent responses from the viewer than would likely bemade were the images to be seen in isolation.
As a result, there is a broad narrative to the book, andwithin that are a number of smaller themes. I am alsohopeful that each individual image speaks for itself, andso the only text I feel necessary is a brief explanatorycaption on each page.
