The annual World Press Photo contest offers an overview of how press photographers tackle their work worldwide and how the press gives viewers the news, bringing together pictures from all parts of the globe to reflect trends and developments in photojournalism.
The World Press Photo of the Year Award carries a cash prize of EUR 10,000, as well as expenses to travel for the Awards Days.
The winner also receives one of Canon's latest professional digital cameras.
How to Enter
Judging & Results
The jury acts independently of World Press Photo, and the organization has no influence on its decisions.
The winner of the World Press Photo of the Year, together with winners of first prizes (both for stories and for single images) in each category, receive a cash prize and a return air fare with hotel accommodation for the awards ceremony.
