The World Press Photo Foundation believes in the power of showing and the importance of seeing high-quality visual stories. Our purpose is to connect the world to the stories that matter.
With visuals now at the heart of human communication, ever more people are captivated by visual journalism and storytelling they can trust to take them beyond the headlines. We connect the global audience to visual journalists and storytellers because of our commitment to the freedom of expression, freedom of speech and freedom of the press.
