A photographic exhibition on the work and results achieved by the DREAM programme will take place at the Museo di Roma in Trastevere, piazza Sant’Egidio, from the 4th to the 28th May. The photographs were taken by Graciela Iturbide, a highly accredited Mexican photographer and the exhibition contributes to the 5th edition of the International Photography Festival promoted by the Council of Rome.

The photographer, famous in particular for his sensitivity towards the social conditions of women, focuses his attention on patients from the DREAM centres in Maputo and Beira. The photographs, in black and white, give testimony to their struggle and victory against AIDS, their victory being expressed by their hope, health, in their role as mothers and at work. In short the exhibition shows how these women got their life back.
