Stigma under the Lens Exhibition

Lower Cafe gallery space on the ground floor

Christian Aid has partnered with Magnum Photos to launch ‘Stigma under the Lens’, a photographic exhibition for World AIDS Day featuring brave people around the world living with HIV under the shadow of stigma.

Four Magnum photographers (Alessandra Sanguinetti, Peter van Agtmael, Olivia Arthur and Patrick Zachmann) travelled to Kenya, Bolivia, Tajikistan, India, and the UK to record powerful testimonies that tell of discrimination by friends, family and society at large.

There have been many medical advances in the past 30 years since HIV was first identified, yet stigma remains the biggest barrier to people around the world accessing lifesaving treatment.

The stories examine how stigma manifests itself in everyday life for someone who has HIV, and go some way to explaining why thousands of people would rather not know their status than face discrimination at home, in their community, at work and within their faith.
