This is Rwanda - A Storytelling Journey | Gaël Vande Weghe | TEDxRugando
The imagery and the storytelling centered around nature, wildlife, and development in Rwanda have been quite limited in showing the complete diversity of the country. Through a series of breathtaking pictures, Gael argues the importance of Africans telling their own stories to themselves. He shares what he learned from taking aerial photographs of the entire country of Rwanda, documenting the succession of ever-changing, beautiful and revealing landscape. Gaël Ruboneka Vande weghe is a Rwandan biologist and entrepreneur who worked ten years as a researcher for the Wildlife Conservation Society in Gabon. His academic and professional background is in natural sciences and biodiversity, and he has conducted research throughout East and Central Africa. After publishing his first book Butterflies of Gabon, he went back to Rwanda and co-authored his second book, Birds of Rwanda. (2011, 336 pages). Given his solid background in biology, photography and environmental communication, he teamed up with a few other professionals and co-founded Illume Creative Studio of which he was CEO. Gael has co-authored 3 other books. He recently became CEO of Illume’s sister company, Illume Editions, and co-authored ‘This is Rwanda: An Aerial Photography Journey’ with his colleague, Philippe Nyirimihigo and finally in October 2018, his sixth book. Salonga National Park – Au Coeur de la grande forêt congolaise – was printed for the WWF. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
