Additional Information / Shotlist In 2020, two years ago, the COVID-19 pandemic made visible to the general public some of the many challenges associated with humanitarian work. Suddenly mortality rates, shortages of medical supplies and the difficulty of making hard choices in contexts with limited resources were reported in the media and discussed in social circles across the world. Little was said, however, about the consequences of making those choices on the frontline humanitarian and healthcare workers who witnessed their direct impact. While some audiences saw health care providers as superheroes as a form of appreciation, this reality has often overshadowed or oversimplified a discourse around the challenges, dilemmas and the stigmatization faced by many frontline workers.
