Inside the Curve: Stories from the Pandemic
This exhibition showcases the work of writers, photographers, filmmakers, journalists, and others, providing evidence-based reporting on the physical, social, emotional, and economic impacts of the coronavirus pandemic and the inequities it has revealed. The content is drawn from the National Geographic Society’s COVID-19 Emergency Fund for Journalists, which was launched near the beginning of the pandemic to provide support for storytellers covering the effects of COVID-19 in their own communities. These stories act as a starting point to help us begin the work of processing the collective experience we’ve all passed through.
This exhibit is organized by National Geographic Society and endorsed by the World Health Organization (WHO) and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP).
On display until 2 December
