Now any one can help to save US....

Postcards from the Frontline is a 350.org action that aims to send 350 high-impact postcards from Maldives to influential world leaders, policy makers and celebrities around the world.

These postcards will be crafted from 350 unique photographs that are selected from entries submitted by Maldivians from all corners of our nation. The ultimate goal is to send out a message of the urgency of our plight as a country on the frontline of the battle against climate change.

Your contribution is simple as it is important. All we need is your photograph, which may end up in the hands of a celebrity who can potentially amplify our message to the world, or on the desk of a world leader whose influence at the United Nations Climate Change Conference in December can change and impact the future of our country.

So join the movement. Make yourself heard. Go out with your camera today, and let the future of the things you see be your inspiration.

One Founder
" Hi guys,

One of the reasons why we wanted to set up an association was to give an identity to Maldivian photographers. We want to find opportunities for talented Maldivian photographers and try to negotiate and help them get opportunities/exposure and also very importantly, for their work to be appreciated and paid what it deserves.

What we want to do is simply facilitate. We are designing membership forms and they will out very soon. Anyone can be a member and we will have elections latest within 6 months to elect a executive committee. This committee will be elected from you guys alone. Not us.

We have a lot of events planned and we are negotiating collaborations with the photography associations in India and Singapore that will bring benefits to our local members.

Be assured that our intention is for this to benefit all of us.

More info will be available soooon!

Cheers "
