travel is a right. Not a privilege for the healthy.

Red Ribbon Travelers is a long-term cultural initiative that explores the intersection between travel, stigma, and the right to mobility.
In more than 40 countries worldwide, people living with HIV still face legal restrictions, mandatory disclosures, or outright travel bans.

We believe this is not only a public health issue — it’s a human rights issue.
Through photography, storytelling, interviews, and digital art, Red Ribbon Travelers gives voice to those who travel with an invisible condition, yet carry an enormous burden.

This project is part of Blend London’s broader commitment to inclusion, diversity, and social impact in contemporary culture.
We aim to raise awareness, challenge prejudice, and celebrate the courage of those who keep moving forward — with a red ribbon on their heart.
