They will showcase a selection of  photographers in order to raise funds for the drought-stricken Horn of  Africa. <\/p>\n<p>By examining prints from award winning photojournalists  Kate Holt, Sebastian Rich and Ed Ou, Stories from Somalia takes us on a  journey that bravely addresses the ongoing humanitarian crisis in  Somalia that has affected tens of thousands of people. The famine is put  into context with the work of Virginia Luling, a leading  anthropologist, in an effort to capture the cultural and ethnic identity  of the Somali peoples.<\/p>\n<p>SRDF with its member  organisations aims  to highlight that without pressure on policy makers  to depoliticise aid  and build longer lasting capacity this will not be  the last we hear  from this troubled region. This charity exhibition and  auction, as well  as engaging audiences, aims to raise money for projects  throughout the  region including direct relief, development and  displacement issues.<\/p>\n<p>A \u00a34 donation will be expected at the door.
