In collaboration with Swiss artist Cee-Roo, Doctors Without Borders (DWB) pays tribute to women around the world.

Doctors Without Borders (DWB) Switzerland and Swiss artist Cee-Roo have joined forces to raise public awareness of women’s health, with a particular focus on maternity. This unique collaboration comes to life through Mother-to-be? – an immersive experience presented in the Syllepse, a large water tank located at the Jardin des Nations in Geneva, offering 360-degree video and sound projection. This original production brings together the testimonies of expectant mothers from around the world with Cee-Roo’s talents, creating a powerful narrative that follows the journey from the announcement of pregnancy to childbirth. Stories gathered from nearly twenty countries are brought to life through musical compositions inspired by these voices, highlighting both the richness and challenges of motherhood across the globe. This collaboration aims not only to raise awareness of the realities of motherhood in diverse contexts, but also to strengthen solidarity with women around the world. The testimonies featured in the production, along with the accompanying photographic exhibition, offer a profound reflection on the importance of universal access to maternal and child healthcare, in line with DWB’s mission.

The Syllepse is a giant water tank designed for 360-degree video and sound projection. Located in the Jardin des Nations, a new space for relaxation and culture in the heart of International Geneva, the Syllepse offers immersive experiences throughout the year.
