Imagine - Reflexions on Peace - Grand Format

In 2018, the VII Foundation asked more than a dozen renowned reporters and photojournalists to revisit countries with which they had become achingly familiar during times of brutal confl ict. The task was to see peace through the prism of their journalistic experience ; to survey familiar towns and villages ; to reconnect with women, men, soldiers, civilians, statesmen, and students who had survived the confl ict or grown up in the postwar society ; to discover what the lived experience of "peace" feels like.
To augment this reportage, we sought input from academics and peacemakers. And we invited citizens of those countries to give their very personal narratives, in their own voices. Hard edges were not softened nor unpalatable impressions deleted. We wanted to show the truth as seen and experienced by those that lived and those that reported on seemingly intractable civil wars in Bosnia and Herzegovina Cambodia, Colombia, Lebanon, Northern Ireland, and Rwanda.
