Uthole kanjani izingane izithombe? Uhlangane kanjani nabo?
Wayenezindlela ezahlukahlukene zokusebenza. Ezindaweni ezinjengeNepal, iChina kanye neWest Bank, ngisebenze no-'Save the Children 'abangisizile ngakwazi ukufinyelela, kodwa ngabuye ngabona kubalulekile ukuthi ngithathe izithombe zezingane ngaphandle komhlaba, futhi ngasebenza nomdidiyeli wendawo. Ngasebenza nasemazweni afana neBrazil, Japan kanye neMelika.
Ngabe ucabanga ukuthi le yintambo esebenza kuwo wonke umsebenzi wakho njengomthwebuli zithombe?
Yebo, kwenzani. Amaphrojekthi wami avame ukuqala ekubukeni engizama ukukusho kamuva ezithombeni. Cishe njalo ezungeze uchungechunge lwezithombe; Izithombe ngazinye, yize zibalulekile, azinandaba kangako.
Ungasitshela indaba ngezingane ezigqame kakhulu ohlangane nazo ohambweni lwakho?
Ngokuya ngokweqisa phakathi kwezingane ezimbili, obekungaba phakathi kukaJaime, engimthwebule isithombe efulethini lakhe esitezi esiphezulu kuFifth Avenue eNew York, noLehlohonolo owayehlala eLesotho, eNingizimu Afrika. UJamie wayematasa kakhulu nesikole, futhi enesimiso esimatasa semisebenzi yangemva kwesikole efana ne-judo, izifundo zokubhukuda, ibhola lezinyawo, njll. Wayethanda nokutadisha izimali zakhe kuwebhusayithi yeCitibank.
ULehlohonolo ubehlala nezingane zakwabo ezintathu, ebeziyizintandane ezine-AIDS. Izingane zazihlala eqhugwaneni lodaka lapho zazilala ndawonye emhlabathini, zigonane ukuze zifudumale phakathi nobusuku obubandayo basebusika. Abafowabo bakaLehlohonolo bahamba ngezinyawo beya esikoleni esiqhele ngamakhilomitha amahlanu, lapho kunikezwa khona izabelo zokudla zanyanga zonke ezinjengamabele, imidumba namafutha. Abakwazanga ukukhumbula ukuthi bagcina nini ukudla inyama. Ngeshwa, kungenzeka ukuthi baphila ngobumpofu impilo yabo yonke ngoba izilimo kunzima ukuzitshala ezweni elingatheli, futhi awekho amathemba emisebenzi.
Imibhalo yezithombe isithinta kanjani isiqinisekiso nokuvikelwa kwamalungelo abantu?
Ngicabanga ukuthi okwenzekayo eSyria njengamanje kuyisibonelo esithandekayo. Abantu basebenzisa omakhalekhukhwini ukubhala ngesihluku esenzekayo, futhi lokhu kusiza ukugxilisa imiqondo yabantu futhi kugcinwe kwabezindaba. Ngenkathi, eminyakeni engama-20 eyedlule, ubaba ka-Assad ecindezela ukuvukela okwabulala izinkulungwane zabantu, kwakungekho mibhalo eminingi futhi lokhu kwavunyelwa.
