Abstract

This post announces and summarizes the international launch of the art and photography exhibition titled Stories of a Broken Water Cycle, which opened on October 8 at UN City in Copenhagen. Hosted by the UNFPA Nordic Representation Office and developed by Lokoja Dialogues in collaboration with Nigeria's Federal Ministry of Budget and Economic Planning, the multi-week exhibition features community-led Nigerian artworks and northern state photography.
