Technical Report 2024

Reviewing a range of issues related to the 2024 Contest

Our commitment to transparency means we analyze and make public data on the contest related to diversity, representation, and verification. This report is designed to enable informed conversation within our community of professional photojournalism and documentary photography and is not intended to be a comprehensive presentation of all aspects of the relevant issues.

2024 is a year of reflection and change at World Press Photo. Reflecting on the results from the implementation of our regional strategy, we have used these learnings to work towards a more global and better geographic balance of perspectives.

As the world gets smaller and more interdependent, we need mutual understanding that can foster dialogue that breaks through polarization. Accurate, diverse and trustworthy photojournalism and documentary photography has a vital role to play.
