Visiting Ntaria
140cm x 110cm
Acrylic on canvas

Visiting the beautiful historic Mission at Ntaria Hermannsburg is a passage back in time

when the German Lutheran missionaries established it in 1877.. they worked alongside the indigenous Arrarnta people and the mission became a refuge during the frontier conflicts. They prioritised learning the local language and recorded their culture…so much history here … it was a special place to visit

PLEASE READ BELOW .
.

@beyond_suncare just phenomenal! I am really inspired by their work and hope for everyone to see what they are doing MAKING iTHE LIVES OF PEOPLE WITH ALBINISM SO MUCH BETTER
.
.
They help and have helped thousands of people in Africa with albinism
..
.
THE ENEMY IS THE SUN
..

.
SKIN CANCER ENDS THE LIFE OF 9 out of 10 PEOPLE WITH ALBINISM
.
.
this is the reality and it’s hurrendous
.
.

THE FACTS OF ALBINISM
.
250 murders in 29 countries
.
Precancerous lesions present in 100% of people 25 yes and younger
.
Life expectancy less than 30 yrs
.

.’
Discrimination for their appearance and persecuted by the influence of superstitions
.
.
No access to education on prevention
..
.
.
BUT WE CAN PREVENT THIS !!!

.SO THANK GOODNESS FOR @beyond_suncare
.
They began working in TANZANIA AND MALAWI BUT ARE NO WORKING IN RWANDA DRC CONGO UGANDA and BEYOND
.
.
Now they are MAKING SPECIAL SUNSCREEN 🙏🙏
.
.
Their formula combines high efficacy and safety. Designed to be manufactured locally in simple installations where people with albinism are hired
.
.
They have created a BEYOND PROTECTION PACKAGE … a skin protection program that’s easily replicable model in African communities.
.
These guys work HARD TO IMPROVE THE LIVES OF PEOPLE WITH ALBINISM
.

.’.

EDUCATION AND AWARENESS .. about sun protection to all of the community
.
THE distribution services for their cream, education and awareness go to the most remote places in co ordination with local hospitals schools dispensaries .
.
.
Their model was DECLARED BEST PRACTICE BY UNITED NATIONS
.
.
PLEASE SEE WHAT THEY ARE DOING ITS AWESOME AND THE PROBLEM IS HUGE
.
.
This issue is close to my heart … my son has ongoing skin issues from birth… which have been debilitating.
.
.
THANKYOU @beyond_suncare
.
.
I hope to come visit you next year and see the projects🙏🙏
