Ina Hume

About Me: 

I am photographer and filmmaker and I was born in Rangamati in the Hill Tracts of Bangladesh. I am mixed race, part Chakma and part Scottish with a bit of Bengali thrown in as well. Much of my work involves working with young people and communities often voiceless and invisible, and enabling them to develop and create their own media, and tell their own stories. My heart is in the Chittagong Hill Tracts and my dream is to see proper empowerment for the women and Indigenous Peoples of the region, as well as Indigenous Peoples the world over. I am always working on a number of different projects and love connecting with people from all over the world.

My Passions: 
Photography, travel, meeting people,
My Challenges: 
Justice for the Jummas, finding innovative projects to work on with interesting people and collaborators
My Vision for the Future: 
Develop connections between young people and communities I have worked with and create online digital communication platform, linked in with others e.g. World Pulse
My Areas of Expertise: 
Founder and Director of Vanishing Rites. Participatory media, photography, filmmaking, digital storytelling, young people, Human rights, Indigenous issues, gender based violence, Chittagong Hill Tracts
My Languages: 
English, Chakma, French
