The Wild Connection

As humanity stretches itself to the far corners of the planet, there are more and more instances of human-wildlife conflict. This photograph invites us to consider the opportunities for safe and respectful human-wildlife connection.

This award-winning photograph is from the seventh season, “The Moment,” of the Hamdan bin Mohamed bin Rashid al Maktoum International Photography Award (HIPA) Archive. The Climate Tribe has partnered with HIPA, leveraging the power of photography to inspire global awareness of sustainability and advance climate action. The first collaboration under this partnership is the COP28 Photography Competition, which invites creative submissions under two themes: PLANET and SOLUTIONS. The COP28 Photography Competition is open for submissions until 31 December 2023. Find entry details at www.hipa.ae
