World Press Photo Yearbook 2024

A black and white two-page magazine spread featuring a collage of photographs depicting youth in Tunisia. The images include intimate portraits of young people, a group in an urban setting, a man doing a backflip next to a sports court, an industrial waterway, and a long row of apartment buildings. French text captions are included below the photos.

A black and white photograph of a family of five posing for an artistic portrait. A young girl sits on the left with her face visible, holding up a drawing. The four other family members sit in a row behind a tea set, each holding a different drawn portrait over their own face. The portraits depict a graduate, an older couple, and a professional woman.

A photo-essay spread with six images depicting life and hardship in Venezuela. Two large photos at the top show a young girl resting on a bed in a modest room and a mother holding her child in a rustic kitchen. Below are four smaller images showing a city street under a tangle of power lines, men on a raft near oil derricks on a green lake, boys by the polluted shore, and a person diving from a dilapidated pier into the water.

A woman’s face with a pensive expression is seen in the reflection of an ornate, white-framed oval mirror. The mirror rests on a cluttered dressing table against a bright blue wall, surrounded by everyday items like a coffee cup, sunglasses, and makeup.

A two-page magazine spread with French text featuring a grid of eight images that blend space exploration with queer themes. The photos include a portrait of astronaut Sally Ride, a press conference for a GAY SPACE AGENCY, a person in a protective suit covered with small portraits, a glowing red figure under the stars, a surreal desert collage with parachutes, and a conference room with chairs labeled with words like QUEER and GAY.

A woman in a blue dress and headscarf kneels on a tiled floor, grieving as she clutches a small body wrapped in a white shroud.

The Images That Matter

Independent photojournalism and documentary photography 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. A photograph by Mohammed Salem for Reuters from the Gaza war is the press photo of the year and also the cover illustration - it shows a Palestinian woman holding her five-year-old niece, who was killed when a missile hit her home in Khan Younis, Gaza, tightly on her lap.
