How does Famidi protect dignity in field documentation?

Reviewed by Famidi editorial team
Direct answer

Famidi aims to document the work without making a person prove that they are deserving. Public evidence can focus on supplies, infrastructure, process, wide field scenes, general locations, and consent-aware stories instead of unnecessary names, close portraits, medical details, or other private information.

Evidence does not require maximum exposure

A completed water point, packed food box, bakery record, receipt, or wide distribution scene can support a claim without centering a recognizable face. Strong documentation asks what must be shown—not how much hardship can be displayed.

Specificity and privacy can coexist

A useful record can include a date, province-level or city-level location, program, items, process, and source trail while withholding a precise address or identity. The right balance depends on consent, risk, age, health information, and the purpose of publication.

Why some archive media stays private

Famidi retains more media than it publishes. Material may be withheld because of private details, unclear consent, quality, duplication, or the dignity and safety of the people shown. Not publishing every image is part of responsible evidence management.
