THE FUTURE<br />
IS PRICELESS –<br />
THE HUMAN<br />
CONSEQUENCES<br />
OF THE RISING<br />
SEA LEVEL<br />
WHERE WILL WE GO?<br />
Photographs by Kadir van Lohuizen<br />
Sea level rise is one of the anticipated consequences of climate<br />
change. This will cause some low-lying coastal areas to become<br />
completely submerged, while others will increasingly face shortlived<br />
surges and high-water levels. These anticipated changes<br />
could have a major impact on the lives of coastal populations.<br />
For the past two years photo journalist Kadir van Lohuizen has<br />
been looking at the global consequences of rising sea levels<br />
caused by climate change. He has traveled and photographed in<br />
Kiribati, Fiji, Carteret atolls (Papua New Guinea), Bangladesh,<br />
and Guna Yala (Panama) as well as in the United States of America and the United Kingdom.<br />
This multimedia exhibition is designed to highlight both the immense complexities associated with in-island<br />
and inter-island country movement where people are already trying to adapt to sea level rise, as well as<br />
the specific human rights implications involved with such involuntary movements. The exhibition composition<br />
is mixed, including still photographs, audio, video and text.<br />
