About the Ebook
The Turkish proverb, "Every man has his own style of eating yogurt," is used to remind us that others have different ways of doing things and therefore we should appreciate and allow the differences.
This photographic collection brings humans closer together by inviting you to both identify with our common humanity, and to appreciate our differences. Each approach helps us bridge the gaps between "Us & Them."
Photographer, Mario Mattei, lives and works in Turkey. He is the co-founder and president of the International Guild of Visual Peacemakers (IGVP). www.visualpeacemakers.org
