The book Habibi is a fruit of the 2020 FotoEvidence Book Award with World Press Photo. The recipient of the award, Italian photojournalist Antonio Faccilongo with his long-term project, Habibi, follows for nine years families in Palestine with men serving long sentences in Israeli jails, who smuggle sperm and use in-vitro fertilization to have children. Most media depict Palestine as a war zone. This book takes a purely humanistic approach to one non-violent response to oppression.

Of all the firearms in the world owned by private citizens for non-military purposes, half are in the United States of America. In number they exceed the country's population: 393 million for 372 million people. Photographer Gabriele Galimberti has travelled to every corner of the United States, to meet proud gun-owners, and to see their firearms collections. These, often unsettling, portraits, along with the accompanying stories of the owners and their firearms, provide an uncommon and unexpected insight into what today is really represented by the institution of the Second Amendment.
