the shrinkage of the Caspian Sea

the shrinkage of the Caspian Sea

In September 2023 I visited the Caspian Sea in Kazakhstan to document the shrinkage of the Caspian Sea. According to a forthcoming report by Kazakhstan’s Institute of Hydrobiology and Ecology, the Caspian Sea is approaching the lowest level of 29 metres below sea level, recorded in 1977. In June, the local Aktau authority declared a state of emergency over the critically low level of the sea. My full reportage, words and photos, have been published on a lovely photos essay on the Guardian. Thanks to the local activities and scientists which showed me around @azamat_sarsenbayev @asselbaimukanova

Covid Generation

Covid Generation

I met Zubaydah Abdi very early morning before she was due to go to work. A strong young woman which talks very openly about the struggle of her generation during the pandemic. An interview I suggest to read. "The years between 16 and 18 are a blur to me: I feel as if I’m a 16-year-old stuck within a 19-year-old’s body without the experiences or skills to fulfil their responsibilities...."
