The land of the Children of the Forest.
The land of two people (the Karen and the Mon) who live without recognition or rights. The Chidlren of the Forest initiative aims to provide protection, education and assistance to those who need it most.

Thank you, photographer Thomas Cristofoletti, residing in Madrid and killing it from over there.

Rad story, rad illustrations, rad people.
PS: All of Jolby‘s stuff rules.

More illustrations after the jump.
