Discover the story of photographer Björn Persson, and explore how Björn uses his camera not just to capture images, but to make a real difference.
This lecture highlights the power of photography to raise awareness about urgent environmental issues – endangered wildlife, climate change, and habitat loss – and to inspire action.
Björn Persson’s passionate approach shows how visual storytelling can spark critical questions, ignite empathy, and mobilize people to protect our planet.
Björn Persson is a renowned photographer whose images have been exhibited in galleries and museums across the globe.
An avid wildlife conservationist, Björn is passionately committed to protecting endangered species and their habitats. He is the president of Smart Savannahs, an organization that leverages intelligent technology to combat poaching and ensure the survival of threatened wildlife.
Through his photography, Björn has donated over EUR 800,000 from his profits to various wildlife conservation programs.
In addition to his conservation work, Björn has published three photography books, produced a documentary on the last northern white rhinos, and is set to release his new book, ”The Earth We Share” with Rizzoli New Work, later this year.
