Editor's note:The United Nations Headquarters is proud to host a poignant photography exhibition titled “It is not just news, it is lives lost”. This powerful exhibition aims to bring attention to the human cost behind the headlines, reminding us that each news story represents real lives impacted and often lost.

The United Nations believes in the power of art to inspire change and provoke thought. This exhibition aligns with our mission to promote peace, justice, and strong institutions around the world. We invite all members of the public to join us in reflecting on the stories these photographs tell and the lives they represent.
