The photo exhibition has five sections, all showing what armed conflict can do to women and how women’s vulnerability is increased — they go out to look for water, firewood and food, which makes them a target.
It also shows some of the strategies that the AU and other organisations have used to reduce women’s vulnerability during war.
For instance, one photograph shows women collecting water from an AU truck.
