Ekifire Although it is a complicated time for a book to be published, Ekifire, the result of a seven years project on LGBTI communities in East Africa, is going its way. I had the pleasure of talking about it on Vertigo on RTS, in the Lobby on Radio Campus Paris and as a cultural guest of Sarah Tisseyre on RFI. At the same time, Fisheye, Blind, Slate, De l'Air and SoPhot reported on it.
I was invited to share my experience online during exchanges such as "In Vivo" organised by Solidarité Sida or the "Smuglers of Reality", a series of meetings on living journalism, in Namur, Belgium.
Ekifire is on display at the Geopolis Centre for Photo-journalism in Brussels until 11 April, where the book is available. I talk about the genesis of the project in an interview with Ulrich Huygevelde, curator of the event, in the series Regards. The podcast is here.
As a result of the COVID, signatures were postponed. A video clip made by the Comet bookshop team keeps track of the one that was organised there.
The book is available in bookshops or on the "Belles Lettres" website. I will be happy to sign your copy when we next meet.

Lac Victoria Despite the uncertainty, exhibitions of "Lake Victoria slowly dying" are scheduled in June at the Alliance Française in Nairobi, Kenya, in September at Barrobjectif, France, and in October at the Zoom Photo Festival in Chicoutimi, Quebec.
Publications in China People weekly, China Philantropist, and, in the UK, in New Statesman and New Scientist mark out the diffusion of the essay.
On the occasion of the World Press Photo 2020 exhibition in Quebec and Japan, Le Quotidien and Asahi Shimbun published the photo of the "illegal fisherman", 3rd prize, Environment category, Singles.
In March, the Young African Journalists Accelerator Program (YAJAP) gave me the opportunity to return the favour to young African colleagues by inviting me to interact with them online about "Lake Victoria slowly dying".

In media In January, I was a guest of "Back to the sources", a media programme that looks at the practice of journalism through the eyes of journalists and stories from the field. It was an opportunity to look back on my journey so far and to reflect on my practice.
