In 1997, Giorgio Palmera set up photographic laboratories with child labourers from different cities in Nicaragua. In 2004, in his last visit to the country, he returned to Somoto where one of his students, Saúl Palma Cruz, has continued to teach photography to child labourers in his city.
Saúl received a scholarship from the European Institute of Design in Milan, and successfully finished his studies in June 2008 in Rome. Saúl Palma Cruz looks after the photographic laboratory in Somoto, Nicaragua.
