These photos explore issues surrounding adolescent sexuality, pregnancy, and reproductive rights in Latin America’s Andean Region - Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, Ecuador, and Peru.
The project focused on spaces of connection for young people, including schools, churches, youth groups, families, and intimate friendships. The photos became conversation starters for educators wanting to share sexual health information with teens in relaxed, intimate conversations and presentations.
An exhibit, “Vincules Vitales/Touched,” was shown at local ministries of health throughout the Andean region.
The work was commissioned by Family Care International, global women’s health advocates now part of MSH.org.
