Simon Fidelis Luyenga è un photojournalist indipendente e fotografo documentarista nato in Tanzania; il suo lavoro è stato pubblicato su testate tra cui Suddeutsche Zeitung, Mail & Guardian, Die Zeit, Rinse ed esposto in gallerie. Nel 2018 gli è stata assegnata una menzione d'onore in East Africa Photography Award, by Uganda Press Photo Award a Kampala, Uganda. Nel 2015 è stato incaricato per la mostra “Now you see me now you don’t” al Grand Cinema di Mannheim, Germania. Nel 2019 al Kigali Center for photography by Foundry Photojournalism in partnership with VII Academy e nel 2022 il suo lavoro è stato esposto a Photo Basel. Il suo approccio alla fotografia esprime in profondità la sua fascinazione per la responsabilità sociale, per lo sviluppo e il miglioramento della società laddove esistono sfide particolarmente rilevanti. Il suo interesse per la fotografia è iniziato lavorando in una galleria, con The Goethe Institut Johannesburg’; da allora è stato affascinato dalla retorica delle immagini, usando la sua creatività per esplorare e illuminare la condizione umana e il mondo che lo circonda. Ciò si estende al suo interesse per la teoria, il documentario e il fotogiornalismo. Luyenga ha frequentato il Photojournalism and Documentary Photography Program presso The Market Photo Workshop in Johannesburg. È inoltre membro del World Press Photo’s African Photojournalism Database (APJD) e partecipante al FoundryPhoto Workshop by VIIACADEMY in Kigali. Crede che la fotografia riguardi il concetto e la passione; tutto il suo lavoro ha una ragione, che si tratti di informare, illuminare la causa, fare una dichiarazione, discutere o argomentare - ma sempre per provocare una reazione. Luyenga è attualmente basato in Tanzania: lavora a progetti indipendenti ed è fotografo stringer. La sua intenzione è usare la fotografia come mezzo di espressione per mettere in luce i problemi della società, nella speranza di promuovere un cambiamento sociale.

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.
