- Samenvatting:
- Summary: The initiative Designers against AIDS (DAA) began ten years ago. Since then it has manifested itself with fashion campaigns such as Fashion against AIDS, in which it collaborated with several fashion houses, the best photographers and designers and stars from the rock and pop culture, who all lent themselves for the good cause - making people aware about HIV/AIDS in a positive way and removing the stigma of being seropositive by the creation of beauty. Like this book, for instance. It looks back on DAA's first decade, its past initiatives and campaigns, covering all the highlights, and with contributions by former director of UNAIDS Peter Piot, philosopher and writer Alain de Botton and of course Ninette Murk, founder of DAA and mother organization Beauty without Irony.
