FotoEvidence was founded in 2010 to continue the tradition of using photography to draw attention to human rights violations, injustice, oppression and assaults on human d
ignity wherever they may occur. FotoEvidence Book Award and the World Press Photo Foundation announce a new collaboration and the FotoEvidence Book Award will now be known as a FotoEvidence Book Award with World Press Photo. The annual FotoEvidence Book Award recognizes one photographer whose work demonstrates courage and commitment in the pursuit of social justice.The selected project is published as part of a FotoEvidence series of photo books dedicated to the work of photographers, whose commitment and courage deliver painful truths, creating awareness of unacceptable violations of human dignity. The collaboration will mean that the winner and two other selected finalists will be exhibited during the World Press Photo Exhibition 2018 in Amsterdam in conjunction with the launch of the winner’s book. The book will also be shown during the World Press Photo Exhibition in many of the 100 cities worldwide to which it travels each year.
