Photography is a powerful tool. It can connect and relate people who are thousands of miles of part. It can evoke inspiration and emotion. It can reveal the realities happening in a location, sometimes even better than words.

The Third Millennium Foundation hosts Human Rights Photography Exhibitions at the International Center for Tolerance Education in order to illustrate selected human rights topics from around the world. In order to build awareness and encourage dialogue, events are organized around the exhibits to bring together experts and professionals addressing the subjects shown.
