The participants offer a wide range of perspectives. They are from the capital city Addis Ababa, from the Borana region in the far south of the country, and from around Mekelle in the Tigray region in the north. Their ages range from 15 to mid-fifties.

The photographers were discovered through diverse Ethiopian NGOs:

These NGOs are providing ongoing logistical support to the photographers during the project period. Photographic training was provided in Ethiopia by the professional photographer Annie Bungeroth. The project is funded by CAFOD, Trócaire, Caritas Germany, and coordinated by the Ethiopia joint office of CAFOD and Trócaire in Addis Ababa.
