In August 2019 it will be 4 years since femLENS started running its workshops. In this time we have done 9 workshops in 6 countries with more than 40 women.

Below are some photographs from the very first to the latest workshop we’ve done. We are fundraising money to be able to do our next – tenth workshop – in Gaza, where local women have almost zero chances to become a documentary photographer. We hope you will spread the word about our fundraiser and give what you can.

Workshop with Avenir NGO in Zhytomyr, Ukraine. These three wonderful ladies work in Zhytomyr to prevent human trafficking in the Ukraine through handing out leaflets at bus stations, organising seminars and games in schools and further education establishments in Zhytomyr. We did a one-day photography workshop with them to help them better document their work as they operate on a very small budget. Photo by Jekaterina Saveljeva, 2018
