Still Here

Still Here is a portrait of fourteen communities in remote regions across eastern and southern Africa. It follows the lives of people who have called these places home for centuries, as they navigate a rapidly changing world shaped by forces beyond their control.

To reach these communities, documentary photographer and writer Paul Choy spent years travelling ancient trails and little-known footpaths, bringing back a record of people seeking a future on their own terms.

These are the stories of people who, against the odds, are still here.
