Carmignac Photojournalism Award
Thearmignac Photojournalism Award was created by Edouard Carmignac in the year 2009 at a time when media and photojournalism faced an unprecedented crisis. The aim was 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 foundation 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 that the contemporary world is facing. At the end of each edition, four photographs bequeathed by the laureates are included in the Carmignac collection. The laureates are chosen by an international jury and awarded a 50,000 grant to conduct a 6-month field study with assistance from the Fondation Carmignac. Upon their return, the Fondation Carmignac creates a traveling exhibition and the publication of a monograph.
