Description
SEMA members collaborated with the documentary photographer, Rachel Corner, to create a series of photo portraits and testimonies of their personal journeys as activists and change-makers. The resulting portraits were curated by the survivors and were compiled into a book – Breaking the Silence: turning pain into power – and a photo exhibition, marking the 5th anniversary of the SEMA global network. The exhibition toured the world, from London to New York, via The Hague and Rotterdam, and Nairobi.
