Interview: Paul Childers – PhotogenX (Audio)

Earlier this week I had the privilege of interviewing Paul Childers. Paul, along with Susanne (his wife), runs PhotogenX. The purpose of PhotogenX is to advocate for those who do not have a voice by using photography as a means to tell stories.

Susanne is mostly responsible for the photography. The imagery is absolutely stunning. If you want to see some of it, just check out their website www.photogenx.net

Together Paul and Susanne have traveled through about 50 countries and in his lifetime, Paul has visited 70-80 countries. His trips have included Afghanistan during the war that followed the September 11 attacks in the U.S in 2001.

During our interview we touched on issues such as infanticide in the Amazon and changing laws in Brazil. WE also talked about how Paul’s faith impacts what he does and maintaining a sense of hope when faced with such colossal issues.

Have a listen.

Note: An earlier problem with the audio has been rectified so you should have no issue playing it now.
