Indigenous peoples throughout the Amazon rainforest are acting to protect their territories, their traditions, and rich biodiversity. They are combining technology and ancestral knowledge to foster a creative and alternative way to preservation and survival, in spite of the many threats of destruction they face.

In Venezuela, female imprisonment entails waiting for years—under cramped and deplorable conditions—before moving on to trial and being judged. Will these women ever be able to return to society upon release? What do their conditions tell us about the state of the Venezuelan society?

On September 19, 2020, grantees Pablo Albarenga and Ana Maria Arévalo Gosen, in conversation with Pulitzer Center Senior Editor Marina Walker Guevara, discuss their approaches to photographing marginalized communities. The conversation is part of the virtual programming for Photoville 2020
