The aim of the campaign was to remind people that human rights violations were occurring within a few hours flight from Swiss cities.

Swiss cities are linked with troubled zones: Gaza and Zurich, Somalia and Geneva, Israel and Basel, Iraq and Basel, China and Geneve, Liberia and Winterthur.

This poster here is Gaza and Zurich.
