Applications Open for the Carmignac Photojournalism Award 2022 (€50,000 grant)

The 13th edition of the Carmignac Photojournalism Award (Prix Carmignac du photojournalisme) will focus on Ghana and the ecological and social challenges the country faces.

The Carmignac Photojournalism Award (Prix Carmignac du photojournalisme) aims to support the production of a journalistic photographic project that documents this ecological, social and international crisis.

In 2009, while media and photojournalism faced an unprecedented crisis, Edouard Carmignac created the Carmignac Photojournalism Award to support photographers in the field. Every year, it funds the production of an investigative photo reportage on human rights violations and geo-strategic issues in the world. The Fondation Carmignac provides the laureate with financial and human resources to carry out their project and produces both a monograph and a traveling exhibition, aiming to shed light on the crises and challenges which the contemporary world is facing. At the end of each edition, four photographs bequeathed by the laureates are included in the Carmignac collection. 

Requirements: The Carmignac Photojournalism Award is open to all photographers, of all nationalities. Participation can be individual or collaborative. 

Benefits . selected by an international jury, the laureates receive a €50,000 grant to carry out a 6-month field report with the support of the Fondation Carmignac, which produces, upon their return, a travelling exhibition and the publication of a monograph (lastest release: ‘Congo, A Sublime struggle’ by Finbarr O’Reilly).

The jury for the 13th edition will gather in Paris in November 2022. Application Procedure: All applications can only be submitted online at this link, before October 17, 2022 at 23:59 GMT, in French or English only. The process is entirely free of charge.
