YOUNG men and women at Tinputz in North Bougainville have discovered that using photography is an effective way of informing their leaders about issues which place the sexual and mental health of youths at risk.
After undergoing six months of training on basic photography, 24 youths with the assistance of CARE International Bougainville programmes, staged a one-day mini exhibition last Wednesday to showcase their acquired skill.
The photos on display captured various activities that their peers are involved in including homebrew, drug trafficking and pornography on mobile phones.
Chief of Suako village Owen Kasi said he was impressed with what the youths had learnt.
