This Week: Eva-Lotta Jansson 
Eva-Lotta has a Bachelor’s degree in journalism from the Missouri-Columbia School of Journalism and a post-graduate degree in photojournalism from the London College of Printing. She currently is a freelance photojournalist based in Johannesburg. 
She works with media and NGOs, often travelling to neighbouring African countries. She often produces multimedia packages, inclusive of writing  articles, shooting and editing videos.  Eva-Lotta is also a guest lecturer in photojournalism at the University of Pretoria, and enjoys doing community photo workshops with younger students as well.
She is particularly interested in environmental and feminist issues and how these and similar issues should be prioritised within a democracy.  I have a feeling she will talk about the acid water issue.
