Géopolis – Centre de photojournalisme is located rue des Tanneurs, in the centre of Brussels. This centre for photojournalism and education aims to question current affairs through a combination of photo exhibitions, events and radio programmes.
EXPO In 2023, more than 500.000 people risked their lives crossing the Darién jungle between Colombia and Panama in an attempt to reach the United States. Facing extreme dangers, exploitation, and shattered hopes, this migration route is a nightmare for those who take it. Through this exhibition, the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies gives voice to the survivors and bears witness to their courage.
EXPO Following the fall of the Assad regime in December 2024, Syria is trying to write a new chapter in its history, leaving behind decades of dictatorship and repression. In partnership with AFP, Geopolis invites you to reflect on the 13 years of war that, hopefully, have just come to a definitive end.
