For the past twenty years Stefano Guindani`s ruling passion has been photography in all its guises. In this latest work he explores a particularly difficult social theme: children in Haiti. In no other country in the western hemisphere do children run such a high risk of death while still in their infancy as those born in Haiti. Thousands of Haitian children fight for survival on a daily basis. In rural areas they have no access to the most basic of public services, often having to walk miles to get health care or even find a water supply. But despite being one of the poorest countries in the world, where 70% of the population is unemployed, talent & energy abound, as the Rava Foundation has discovered. Registered charity Rava works to promote awareness, sponsorship for children & voluntary work, as well as running an orphanage, schools, a pediatric hospital & a rehabilitation centre for handicapped children on the isl&. Guidani`s very moving shots capture a world of hope without any trace of pity or commiseration for children who can still trust in the future &, despite all, view their world with eternal optimism.
