EDITORS COMMENTS
In this powerful print titled "20062751" we are transported to the West Great Lakes Region of Tanzania, where a group of resilient refugees from Congo and Rwanda have found solace amidst conflict in Burundi and Zaire. The image captures their unwavering determination as they engage in an essential task - making gambions from stone-filled wire cages to combat water erosion. As our eyes delve into the frame, we witness these brave individuals working tirelessly under the scorching African sun. Their hands skillfully weave together wires, while stones are carefully placed within each cage. It is through this laborious process that they create a vital defense against the relentless force of erosion threatening their newfound home. Their collective effort not only showcases their resilience but also highlights their deep connection with agriculture and land preservation. With every gambion constructed, they contribute to safeguarding fertile soil for future generations, ensuring sustainable agricultural practices despite challenging circumstances. This poignant photograph serves as a reminder of the indomitable human spirit that persists even in times of adversity. It invites us to reflect on the strength and resourcefulness exhibited by those who have been forced to leave behind everything familiar in search of safety and stability. Through EyeUbiquitous' lens, we bear witness to both struggle and hope encapsulated within this single moment captured forever on paper – a testament to humanity's ability to persevere against all odds.
