An award-winning photographer has been working with dozens of young people from Johannesburg to send an important message for building a better South Africa.

Jodi Bieber, who has been a photographer for 25 years, has launched a public poster campaign in the lead up to the May 2019 general elections featuring 45 young people from different cultures, income groups, and areas — giving them a platform to share their visions for themselves and South Africa.
