INRI in AIDS, Unite Against AIDS in Children — Mexico, 2007
Design: Carlos M. González Manjarrez, UNICEF

In Mexico, the highest percentage of children with AIDS are from indigenous populations. Their mothers contract the virus through their partners, who return infected from abroad. The poster shows a traditional Mexican doll, representing these indigenous children. The poster resonates the visual relationship between the initials INRI inscribed in the Crucifix and the initials AIDS (SIDA), suggesting the doll died from AIDS.
