The 2017 edition opens to all French photographers and is done in collaboration with ManifestO – Rencontres Photographiques de Toulouse (France). Reportages must consist of min 20 and max 40 pictures. The prize will be of 1,500 € gross cash and an exposition both during the Festival of Ethical Photography in 2017 and during the ManifestO Festival in 2018.
☐ Single Shot Award: Fertile Solidarity: included for the first time this year, this section is open to all photographers with no limitations and it will focus on the image’s ability to convey a powerful message, embodying the theme in a single shot. The theme for this new Single Shot section aims to be a hymn to solidarity that generates future progress. The spirit of togetherness is realized through actions which bring and support the progress of our entire society. There will be three prizes for this section, that is: first prize 800 € gross cash, second prize 500 € gross cash, third prize 400 € gross cash. The top 30 finalists of this section will have their photos exhibited during the 2017 edition of the Festival. They will be included in a catalogue and in a calendar specifically printed for this section. This section has been realized thanks to the educational unrestricted grant of IBSA Farmaceutici Italia.
All the awarded works will take part to the Festival of Ethical Photography 2017 in Lodi (Italy). On top of the 5 awards, and if the jury, at its own discretion, believes that some works are worth it, the jury itself will propose the works to the organization of the Festival, if coherent with the theme of the Festival 2016, to have it included in the official programme of the Festival. The jury will first ask the photographer. More information about the contest is available here.
