are indispensable tools of political education
for a democratic society and an essential part of shaping
public opinion—especially in our so-called ‘post-factual’
times. In recognition of this, the independent non-profit
organization World Press Photo Foundation, based
in Amsterdam, has been presenting the World Press
Photo Award for the best photo, the best story, the best
longterm project of the year for more than six decades.
The winning images in the various categories tell bold
stories and provide invaluable insights into the state of
our world. The award-winning photos will be announced
at the same time as the book launch and presented in a
traveling exhibition. So it is and remains extremely exciting
to see which works will be selected from thousands
of submissions—and of course which photo will be the
actual cover illustration! Furthermore, 2025 marks the
70th anniversary of the foundation. This will be celebrated
in the book by presenting many well-know historical
winning photos.
