What We’re Up To

Vision

To build a global creative ecosystem where stories are co-created with communities, where dignity shapes representation, and where art serves as a bridge for cultural connection and narrative change. Dakar & Beyond envisions a world where stories are rooted in the lives they reflect, where cultural differences are approached with curiosity rather than judgment —grounded in the belief that every human story carries equal worth.

Mission

Our mission is to foster cultural understanding and uphold human dignity by co-creating ethical stories with people across cultures — through documentary photography, immersive global expeditions, and collaborative artistic practices that unfold over time through trust, participation, and collective ways of seeing. We seek to create visual narratives that resist simplification, respect complexity, and contribute to more thoughtful cross-cultural exchange.
