Feature story

A Treasure in the Forest

In 2016, the German NGO Welthungerhilfe sent me to its most remote project office in India: From the feet of the Rajmahal hills we hiked two hours uphill a small mountain path until we reached the indigenous Paharia (Adivasi) villages. The two friends Jomi and Veidi Paharin – one woman in their 30s, one in their 60s – allowed me to join them while collecting wild forest food. I could barely keep up with their pace in the heat! Although I was one of the first foreigners they ever saw and although we needed two interpreters (Paharia – Hindi, Hindi – English), they made me feel welcome and shared their perky humor with me and the camera.
