Getty Images Announces Stephen Ferry and Karen Kasmauski as Winners of Inaugural Grants for Good

Stephen Ferry’s project for Human Rights Watch (HRW), “Chronicle of a Death Foretold: Widespread Threats and Political Violence Against Colombian Civilians,” will reveal the grave state of human rights in that country while honoring the bravery of many Colombians who struggle to create a democratic society at great risk to their own lives. The project will also document work by the Americas Division of HRW in the region. HRW will use the imagery to highlight Colombia’s human rights problems in a variety of ways such as a multimedia piece for its website, in print publications, and possibly through an exhibit to inform policy makers and the US public about continuing rights problems in a country that receives substantial US assistance.
