Global apparel retailer UNIQLO today announces the worldwide release of a new collection for the PEACE FOR ALL charity T-shirt project, featuring three new designs created with the internationally-renowned photographic cooperative Magnum Photos. The new collection features striking, joyful photos taken by Magnum photographers of international humanitarian projects that have been funded by customer donations through PEACE FOR ALL. The collection will be available from Friday, September 20.

The PEACE FOR ALL project, launched in June 2022, features T-shirts with designs expressing a wish for peace, provided voluntarily by collaborators with close ties to UNIQLO who share the goal of "taking action with a desire for world peace." All profits from sales of PEACE FOR ALL T-shirts are donated to three international humanitarian organizations (UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency, Save the Children, and Plan International). To date, a total of 41 collaborators have created T-shirts, with more than four million shirts sold, raising more than 1.2 billion yen in donations.

For this latest collection, three members of Magnum Photos, the internationally-renowned photographic cooperative, traveled to Vietnam, Romania, and Ethiopia, to capture moments of PEACE FOR ALL-supported humanitarian activities from their own perspectives. These images powerfully illustrate the global impact of purchasing and wearing PEACE FOR ALL T-shirts, sharing where these activities are making a difference, and the people who are being supported.

Through this collection, created by combining UNIQLO's "power of clothing" with Magnum Photos' "power of photography," UNIQLO will continue to expand the PEACE FOR ALL initiative worldwide in a hope for world peace.

■ Overview of the New PEACE FOR ALL Designs

Photographer／Profile	T-shirt
CRISTINA DE MIDDEL Born in Spain in 1975. De Middel investigates photography's ambiguous relationship to truth. Blending documentary and conceptual photographic practices, she plays with reconstructions and archetypes to build a more layered understanding of the subjects she approaches. She joined Magnum in 2017 and became Magnum President in 2022.	Photos showing Plan International's activities in Vietnam to prevent child marriage, support the education of girls, and renovation of school dormitory and WASH facilities establish schools.
Photo by Philipp Ebeling OLIVIA ARTHUR Born in United Kingdom in 1980. Olivia is known for her in-depth work examining people and their personal and cultural identities. More recently her practice has moved into an examination of the human relationship to the body, our physicality, and its intersection with technology. She joined Magnum in 2013 and was elected as its president from 2020 to 2022.	Save the Children supports children and families who have fled the war in Ukraine with education, mental health care, and cash assistance. Photos show children playing and participating in workshops at a Counselling Hub in Bucharest, Romania.
Photo by Refilwe Mrwebi LINDOKUHLE SOBEKWA Born in South Africa in 1995. Sobekwa's early projects dealt with poverty and unemployment in the townships, while in later work he is increasingly addressing his own life, such as his relationship with his sister, Ziyanda, who died after becoming estranged from her family. He joined Magnum in 2022.	UNHCR supports forcibly displaced people in Ethiopia with food, daily necessities, and education. The photos show the relief activities and the lives of the people there.
