I am carrying out a very large and complex cultural project in Sarajevo which consists of tracing the people - or their families - portrayed in historical photos of the siege. I would therefore like to ask if, by publishing photographs taken during that period here, it is possible to be supported in the search for these people, who I would like to interview for the project I am talking about. I am available for any clarification, thank you very much.

good evening, Paolo

based on your goal to identify the people and/or their families in photos, i can suggest you the Sniper Alley Project, founded by Džemil Hodžić, who has a professional media background.

the project aims to archive photos, and search for people in them. it has an extensive archive of those photos taken by various international photojournalists at that time, and it has a significant following among Sarajevans. id recommend reaching out to Džemil directly.

another helpful site i would recommend is https://famacollection.org , a multimedia archive with several photos, videos, and even oral histories. might be helpful for background research and location data. good luck with the project!
