In 2005, Danziger was commissioned by World Vision to create an archive of photographs documenting the lives of women and children around the world. The idea was to see if and how their lives would change in the light of the Millennium Development Goals.
About
The bowl is empty. There is no rice in the pot, no flour in the larder. Nothing. Tonight in Cambodia, Chakriya and her children will not eat. In Honduras Franklin and his grandmother will go hungry, unless he agrees to sell drugs. In Uganda Miriam and Monica will share a single dish of cassava, and hope that drunken village men do not come for them again after dark. In Niger Aisha’s twins may starve to death.
For 10 years, across 8 countries on 4 continents, Danziger worked among the same individuals and families living in both rural and urban areas; hamlets, villages, border towns and city slums on at least three occasions.
