Kashmiri photojournalist among 11 Magnum Foundation fellows
Kashmiri photojournalist Sanna Irshad Mattoo, 27, has become one of the eleven Magnum Foundation’s ‘Photography and Social Justice Fellows’ in 2021.
The Foundation has called the fellows those who are “challenging injustice, pursuing social equity, and advancing human rights through photography.”
The fellows have been selected from 487 applicants to join a network of 57 other image-makers that have been trained through this program since 2010.
“This year’s selection process included former fellows, who reviewed the proposals of applicants working within their regions and areas of expertise. This program centers the potential for creative storytellers to lead and enact change,” read the statement by the Magnum Foundation.
