THE IWMF IS SEEKING CANDIDATES FOR THE FOURTH ANNUAL ANJA NIEDRINGHAUS COURAGE IN PHOTOJOURNALISM AWARD.
The IWMF’s Anja Niedringhaus Courage in Photojournalism Award was created to honor Pulitzer Prize-winning AP photographer and IWMF Courage in Journalism Award winner Anja Niedringhaus (1965-2014). It celebrates women photojournalists whose work inspires us to take action and better understand the world. This courageous reporting manifests in many different forms, and we celebrate visual journalism that inspires us to take action. We believe that courage is reflected in everyday life, beyond the frontlines of conflict, and we seek candidates whose work reflects the values of Anja Niedringhaus through compassion, humanity, and a commitment to capturing the whole picture. In Anja’s words “I do my job simply to report on people’s courage with my camera and my heart.”
Entrants must be full-time female photojournalists of any nationality.
“I could have stayed out of trouble most of my life but always have been drawn to the people who suffer in difficult situations. The real difficulties and the real courage belong to those who are subjected against their will to conflicts.” – Anja Niedringhaus
The Award includes a cash prize of $20,000. As part of the IWMF’s partnership with World Press Photo Foundation, the 2018 Award winner will be announced publicly and have her work showcased at the World Press Photo Festival of Visual Journalism in April 2018.
To apply yourself or submit a nomination for someone else, visit the IWMF’s Submittable page or contact josullivan@iwmf.org. The deadline for 2018 submissions is January 19, 2018.
