About the Organization

The World Press Photo Foundation believes in the power of showing and the importance of seeing high-quality visual stories

It all began in 1955 when a group of Dutch photographers organized an international contest (“World Press Photo”) to expose their work to a global audience.

For six decades, the World Press Photo Foundation has been working from its home in Amsterdam as an independent, nonprofit organization. In that time, the world has changed continuously, and new developments in the media and technology have transformed journalism and storytelling. Our mission has expanded, and we draw on our experience to guide visual journalists, storytellers, and audiences around the world through this challenging and exciting landscape.

About the Event

The annual World Press Photo Contest recognizes and celebrates the best photojournalism and documentary photography produced over the last year. Enter your work for free and you could win €1,000 as a regional winner and an additional €5,000 as a global winner, have your work showcased to a global audience, and more.

Entries for the 2022 World Press Photo Contest are open until 11 January 2022, 12.00 (noon) CET. We are excited to welcome a multiplicity of stories and a diverse range of photographers from all over the world to enter the contest!
