THE FOUNDATION
ABOUT | FOUNDATION
The Nomad Two Worlds (N2W) Foundation was created to serve two purposes: to empower indigenous and marginalised individuals and communities, and to build cross-cultural respect, understanding, and reconciliation through all forms of art.
Founded in 2008 by international photographer Russell James, who was moved by the Australian government’s formal apology to the indigenous populations there, he began to connect with his country’s aboriginal heritage and bring about reconciliation across the cultural divide. N2W Foundation would grow to support and facilitate indigenous artists and musicians around the world, especially in his native Australia, Haiti, and North America.
