Children Forgotten By Borders
Photographer: PARDIS MAALEKI
Exhibit Title: Children Forgotten By Borders
Location: Iran
This photo series offers an intimate and close-up look at the lives of children living in the vast expanse of Sistan and Baluchestan, on Iran's eastern border. Despite their world of childhood dreams, these children face daily challenges. Due to limited food, inadequate healthcare, and difficulties accessing education, they are deprived of their basic rights.
Through these images, we aim to give a voice to the silent and unseen children who, despite their abilities and talents, are deprived of many opportunities due to their geographic location and existing inequalities. Each image strives to capture a moment of their lives and to narrate realities that are often hidden behind walls of indifference.
This series is an invitation to look more closely at these children; children whose only crime is living in a border region deprived of equal opportunities and facilities. May these images ignite a spark for change and hope for a better future.
