Prix Canon de la Femme Photojournaliste
décerné par l'Association des Femmes Journalistes
Canon Female Photojournalist Award
granted by The Association des Femmes Journalistes
Soutenir
le travail des femmes
photoreporter et contribuer à la production indépendante
de reportages approfondis et de qualité sont les deux objectifs
qui ont amené l’Association des Femmes Journalistes à
créer ce Prix, qui, à la manière d’une bourse,
finance chaque année la réalisation d’un projet. Depuis
cinq ans, grâce au partenariat de Canon Communication et Image
France, qui dote le prix d’un montant de 8000 Euros et du Festival
international de photojournalisme Visa pour l’Image, qui accueille la
remise du prix, expose le travail des lauréates, et assure une
visibilité mondiale au prix, les femmes photojournalistes du
monde entier peuvent se porter candidates et voir un de leur projet
soutenu.
To support the female photojournalists work and help large scale and high quality stories independent production are the French Association des Femmes Journalistes (AFJ) main goals. Since the year 2OO1 the Canon/AFJ award gives the opportunity to one photojournalist to finance her project. For the past four years, the Canon Communication et Image France partnership has enabled three women to finance their work thanks to an award of 8000 Euros. The international Festival Visa pour l’Image, which organizes the award evening as well as the winner’s story exhibition, allows candidates throughout the world to present their work and have a large visibility.
