COVID 19, LEBANON & TUNISIA, OXFAM
Since Covid 19 people in MENA have suffered great economic hardship and a lack of access to healthcare. For Oxfam, I photographed and filmed Mohammad and Mariam’s stories. Watch the shorts below.
“Sometimes we prioritise some items over food ”. - Mariam, Saida, Lebanon.
During the pandemic the economic crisis only worsened in Lebanon, people like Mariam have paid the price.
“The people in power got us here, the regular people had no hand in this.”
Mohamad cut off his finger during the pandemic, a simple operation could have reattached it, but due a shortage of doctors and poor healthcare at the time he wasn't given the operation he needed.
“The accident cost me a year of my life.”
