“HOPE is a manifesto of human interrelationship with Nature and gives a gentle and optimistic perspective on the environmental issues.”—Caterina De Biasio, Vogue
A MESSAGE OF HOPE FROM RENOWNED CONSERVATION PHOTOGRAPHER CRISTINA MITTERMEIER, WITH A FOREWORD BY ENVIRONMENTAL ACTIVIST AND ACTOR ROBERT REDFORD.
From ocean shores and Arctic glaciers to some of the most remote indigenous communities in the world, HOPE explores humanity’s relationship with the planet and possibilities for a mindful, sustainable future.
This artistic manifesto is a celebration of the beauty of our planet’s biodiversity and a tribute to indigenous wisdom and stewardship, weaving photographer and marine biologist Cristina Mittermeier’s personal narrative with meaningful visual stories from a journey spanning over 130 countries, across every continent. Through her lens, Mittermeier explores the complex relationships that tie us to the natural world and to each other. Her images reflect a commitment to environmental conservation, cultural preservation, and social equity.
With its radiant photography and candid prose, HOPE explores the beauty of an interconnected world: the majesty of a whale surfacing to catch its breath, the wise power of Madagascar’s baobabs, and the extraordinary resilience of people like the Kayapó fighting to save the Amazon rainforest.
This impressive, bilingual English-French volume is divided into six sections—Indigenous Wisdom, Oceans of Hope, Icy Realms, The After Life, Heirs to the Earth, Interconnected—and features a foreword by legendary American actor and environmental activist Robert Redford. Part of the proceeds of this book will directly benefit the people, communities and projects featured in its pages.

With a background in marine biology and over three decades behind the lens, she has elevated conservation photography to the realm of fine art. Her photographs have been featured in hundreds of publications and exhibited in museums, galleries, and fairs across five continents, and her artistry has earned her numerous international accolades.
Born in Mexico, Mittermeier travels around the world on conservation photography missions and is based in British Columbia along with her partner Paul Nicklen.
