The purpose of this workshop was to encourage reflection and discussion about the children's lives, with a focus on their experiences during the previous summer's war through Polaroid photography and written interviews.

The participants paired off, then drew up questions and interviewed each other, in-depth, about their experiences during 2006's summer war. They then went home with Polaroid cameras and took portraits of each other and each other's families, homes, villages and lives.

The final result is a full collection of interviews and contextual portraits reflecting the lives and thoughts of children living in and around Tibnine, south Lebanon.
