  4. HUMANITARIAN PHOTOGRAPHER EDOARDO SANTANGELO Edoardo Santangelo is a humanitarian documentary photographer oriented towards the investigation of social contemporary issues, with a focus on international development and humanitarian emergencies. Using his background in Economics and his master in Energy and International Development, he focuses on researching and documenting the lived experiences of rural settlements and displaced communities, such as refugee camps and internally displaced people. With a strong passion for human interest stories and a diploma in Documentary Photography, Edoardo has long-term experience in producing compelling photoreportages for international non-governmental organizations (NGO), UN and International agencies in a range of fragile and vulnerable settings. Edoardo has solid expertise in the international development sector. He has long- term experience with GIZ in India, and has worked as a humanitarian energy specialist for Practical Action - a British international non-governmental organization (NGO) - where he embedded documentary photography as an innovative and complementary ethnographic research method to amplify community voices, develop evocative impact case studies and depict the evidence base for intervention. Before dedicating himself entirely to photography, Edoardo worked for General Electric in Scotland for almost five years. Edoardo is fluent in English, Spanish and Italian and has extensive experience in Asia (Nepal, India and Bangladesh), West Africa (Togo and Burkina Faso) and East Africa (Kenya and Rwanda). His photos have been published in various editions of the Poor People Energy Outlook and used in numerous humanitarian energy publications, workshops and conferences worldwide to document the lived conditions of refugees and internally displaced people in Nepal, Kenya, Burkina Faso and Rwanda. His photographic work is driven by the need of raising awareness of urgent humanitarian issues and building the case for action, engendering empathy and recognition. He is devoted to produce persuasive images that convey stories from the bottom-up and give voice to those who otherwise would not have it, allowing a better understanding of the human condition in vulnerable contexts.

Research participants would feel actively involved in the investigation, in a collaborative, cathartic and empowering manner. The research findings will also be actively constructed, not passively received. • Translate research findings into evocative images, enriching interpretations of emerging data, allowing a better understanding of nuanced expressions of communities and reducing the likelihood of misrepresentation. • Provide a neutral and impartial platform to interpret and contextualize qualitative studies, allowing a better understanding of the human condition. 13

  35. FOOD FOR FUEL TRADING FOOD FOR FUEL - KAKUMA REFUGEE CAMP IN KENYA. Food and firewood are central to the livelihoods of the inhabitants of Kakuma Camp as contact between the refugees and local community, the Turkana, often entails the exchange of these two items. This photo-story portrays refugees bartering sorghum received through distribution for charcoal. Turkana women walk through the streets of the camp with charcoal on their heads, waiting for refugees willing. Established in 1992 and with a population of approximately 190.000 people, Kakuma is the world’s 4th largest refugee camp. Food and firewood are distributed for free and on a regular basis by the UNCHR (the UN Refugee Agency) and the WFP (World Food Programme). However, it is not uncommon that refugees run out of firewood, especially in winter when they use it for cooking and heating purposes. In these circumstances, refugees have the option to buy more from the Turkana, who gather wood from their lands and sell the bundles in the camp. These informal food for fuel exchanges drastically reduce the physical and time burden for the women who are usually responsible for this activity in the camp. 35
