Hannah spent a week in Northern Nigeria for a trauma healing programme with a group of survivors of sexual violence at the hands of either Boko Haram or Fulani militants. The project was facilitated by Open Doors.

Hannah taught the women to paint their self-portraits, sewing vibrant African fabric onto the canvas for the finishing touch.
