GAZA – Through Their Eyes

This event has ended

City Hall, Thursday 11th December - Saturday 20th December

Dublin City Council, the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) and the European Commission’s Directorate-General for Civil Protection and Humanitarian Aid Operations presents: GAZA Through Their Eyes.

An exhibition featuring twenty-seven photographs taken by photojournalists who, from October 2023, have been documenting life in the Strip under siege.

For nearly two years, the Gaza Strip — an area of just 365 square kilometres — has been ravaged by war. Home to over 2.1 million people, this besieged enclave has endured near-constant bombardment, forced displacement, destruction and the collapse of basic services. Families have limited access to food, clean potable water, medicine and shelter. Their experience is of fear, hunger, dehydration, loss and bereavement.

This exhibition is their lens. It is Gaza’s voice. It is a call not to look away
