The Kingdom of the Netherlands, in collaboration with the World
Press Picture Basis, presents All the way down to Earth, an exhibition that
interprets local weather change and the way forward for the planet into
pictures.
The exhibition brings collectively twenty award-winning
initiatives from the World Press Picture Contest archive, specializing in
Twenty first-century tales. The chosen images reveal intertwined
narratives of disaster, innovation, adaptation, and resilience. For the
first time, a World Press Picture exhibition is coming to a COP, and never
“behind closed doorways,” however open to all who want to see it.
In Belém, town internet hosting COP30, All the way down to Earth shall be offered in
an itinerant format — shifting by bicycle. This “biking
exhibition” was developed in collaboration with native companies
and the Perifa na Pista mission.
“On this means, we actually
put pictures, tales, and sustainability into movement, via a Dutch
icon of sustainable mobility: the bicycle,” says Jelle Floot, from the
Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands in Brasília. Within the coming
years, Dutch embassies all over the world may have the chance to
host the exhibition of their international locations, encouraging the general public to
replicate on their relationship with the planet.
