Himalayan Village Project

Picture-About_us_himalaya.jpg

In 2006 professional photographer Coni Hörler spent two months photographing 100 remote Himalayan villagers in their home and work environments. The photographs were developed and framed in Bangalore and given back to the people of the village.

 

As the time passes, the children in these photographs will grow. The images and the memories they awaken will continue to build a strong bridge between cultures and generations.

 

This is a shining example of Earth.org’s vision of responsible travel. The Himalayan Village Project not only broadened the personal horizons of Coni Horler, it also enriched the villagers with an exchange of creativity, experience, knowledge and culture.
