Group to host photo exhibition on climate change

By Samuel Ogunsona

A media organization focused on climate and environmental storytelling, is set to host its first-ever community-centered photo exhibition.

The group Climagraphy is set to host the exhibition, titled “The Current: Lagos is rising, the sea too!”, will feature the works of Nigerian documentary photographer Mayowa Adebote.

The event aims to bring climate change realities to the forefront through powerful visual storytelling, placing the voices of affected communities at the heart of the narrative.

Unlike traditional photo exhibitions, “The Current” will transform dilapidated structures into exhibition spaces, bringing climate stories directly to the communities most impacted by environmental changes.

A two-day workshop will also be held to equip local residents and community members with essential skills in photo documentation and citizen journalism.

This initiative is designed to create a platform for dialogue, engagement, and advocacy among policymakers, climate experts, and local residents.

The exhibition will take place from April 4th to 5th, 2025, in Akodo-Ise Community, and will feature panel discussions, workshops, and training for locals.

Climagraphy is seeking partnerships with organizations and individuals passionate about environmental advocacy and community-driven solutions.
