The exhibition organised by Population Services and Training Centre (PSTC) and supported by Australian Agency for International Development (AusAID) and Australian Youth Ambassadors for Development (AYAD) is aimed at sensitising people to the fact that street children can do creative works if they are given proper opportunity.

Australian High Commissioner H E Douglas Foskett will open the exhibition at 3:30pm.

Forty-five photographs taken by Saddam, Polly, Razu, Lovely, Tariqul and Milon, who got support and training from PSTC, will be put on display.

The photographs were recently exhibited in Western Australia as part of the internationally renowned Fremantle Festival, said Prof Milon Bikash Paul, executive director of PSTC, at a press conference.

He also said the Visible project aims to develop the communication skills and analytical capacity of the street children.

"We have a superficial idea about the street children and through this exhibition we will be able to learn the conditions and lifestyle of the street children," he added.

Melissa Hurd, project coordinator of Visible Photo Project (VPP), Fayez Mohammad Mostak, director of PSTC Dhaka, Ara Jerejian, project coordinator of VPP, Kaniz Gofrani Koraeshi, advocacy officer of PSTC and the six children were present at the press conference.

The exhibition will continue till February 4.
