Simon Fidelis Luyenga es un fotoperiodista independiente y fotógrafo documental nacido en Tanzania; su trabajo ha sido publicado en medios como Suddeutsche Zeitung, Mail & Guardian, Die Zeit, Rinse y expuesto en galerías. En 2018 recibió una mención honorífica en East Africa Photography Award, otorgada por Uganda Press Photo Award en Kampala, Uganda. En 2015 fue comisionado en la exposición “Now you see me now you don’t” en el Grand Cinema en Mannheim, Alemania. En 2019 en Kigali Center for photography por Foundry Photojournalism en asociación con VII Academy y en 2022 su trabajo fue expuesto en Photo Basel. Su enfoque de la fotografía expresa en profundidad su fascinación por la responsabilidad social, por el desarrollo y la mejora de la sociedad allí donde existe algo notablemente desafiante. Su interés por la fotografía comenzó cuando trabajaba en una galería, con The Goethe Institut Johannesburg’; desde entonces se ha sentido fascinado por la retórica de las imágenes, usando su creatividad para explorar e iluminar la condición humana y el mundo que le rodea. Esto se extiende a su interés por la teoría, el documental y el fotoperiodismo. Luyenga asistió al Photojournalism and Documentary Photography Program en The Market Photo Workshop en Johannesburgo. También es miembro de World Press Photo’s African Photojournalism Database (APJD) y participante del FoundryPhoto Workshop by VIIACADEMY en Kigali. Cree que la fotografía trata sobre el concepto y la pasión; todo su trabajo tiene una razón, ya sea informar, iluminar la causa, hacer una declaración, debatir o argumentar, pero siempre para provocar una reacción. Luyenga actualmente está radicado en Tanzania: trabaja en proyectos independientes y como fotógrafo stringer. Su intención es usar la fotografía como medio de expresión para arrojar luz sobre los problemas de una sociedad, con la esperanza de provocar un cambio social.

JOHANNESBURG, SOUTH AFRICA: Mcebo Dlamini, a prominent leader of the "Fees Must Fall" movement, addresses students at Solomon Mahlangu Hall at Wits University on September 26, 2016, prior to demonstrations. The nationwide student protests continued to escalate, demanding free tertiary education and opposing proposed tuition fee increases at South African higher education institutions.
JOHANNESBURG: September 5, 2016, supporters of then-President Jacob Zuma, including members of the (ANCYL) African National Congress Youth League and the (MK) Umkhonto we Sizwe Military Veterans Association, formed a human barricade outside Luthuli House, the ANC's headquarters. Many of the protesters were dressed in military-style camouflage and vowed to protect the building from what they called "sellouts."
They were defending the president against a group of anti-Zuma protesters who accused him of being responsible for the ANC's worst electoral performance since the end of apartheid. The August municipal elections saw the party lose control of key metropolitan areas. The anti-Zuma faction cited widespread corruption scandals and a faltering economy as the reasons for their dissatisfaction.
DAR ES SALAAM, Tanzania – Supporters of an opposition party gather in Mwananyamala, Dar es Salaam, in February 2018 to listen to a Member of Parliament (MP) candidate during a re-election campaign. The rally, held in the context of the Kinondoni by-election, was part of a planned march towards the offices of the National Electoral Commission (NEC). As the demonstrators proceeded, police reportedly intervened, firing stun grenades, tear gas canisters, and rubber bullets to disperse the crowd. The chaotic confrontation tragically resulted in the death of Akwilina Akwilina, a student at the National Institute of Transport (NIT), who was reportedly hit by a stray bullet while traveling in a public transport bus in the vicinity of the demonstration. Her death sparked widespread outrage and calls for investigations into police conduct.

DAR ES SALAAM, Tanzania – Supporters of Tanzania's ruling Chama Cha Mapinduzi (CCM) party show their enthusiasm during a Member of Parliament (MP) re-election campaign rally in Kijitonyama, Dar es Salaam, in February 2018. The event was part of the highly contested Kinondoni constituency by-election, which saw intense campaigning from both the CCM and opposition parties. The by-election was called after the previous MP, from the opposition, lost his seat. The CCM, aiming to solidify its parliamentary majority, mobilized its base for the candidate.
