Young, Brave & Dreaming: Stories of Khuluma Mentors in South Africa

Khuluma is a South Africa-based initiative offering psychosocial support to young people living with HIV, primarily through digital peer-led support groups. 

This visual photostory series invites you into the lives of three Khuluma mentors—each joining our community at different moments, discovering hope, friendships, and a sense of family along the way. Narrated in their own voices, with photos captured remotely over FaceTime by award-winning photographer Elizabeth Dalziel, these mentors share intimate reflections from their youthful dreams, through the paths they’ve courageously shaped, and into their evolving aspirations as they explore new possibilities. 

Now, standing confidently where dreams meet reality, they’ve discovered fresh roles, new dreams, and deep fulfilment. These are self-authored stories of transformation, resilience, and the unstoppable magic of dreaming
