The
French Association of Women Journalists (AFJ) and Canon Communication
et Image France are launching, with Images Evidence, the fourth Canon
Female Photojournalist Award granted by the Association des femmes journalistes
(AFJ).
This Award is handed out every year at the Visa pour l’image Festival
in Perpignan (France). It is granted by Canon Communication et Image
France and aims at supporting a woman photographer for the completion
of a documentary project. To the value of 8000 Euros, it is opened to
professional women photojournalists of any age and nationality.
The winner will be selected by a jury made up of photography and press
professionals as well as members of the Association of Women Journalists*.
Applicants will be judged both upon the presentation of their project
and their previous work. Among the selection criteria are the quality
of the photographs, as well as the journalistic thoughts and relevance
of the chosen subject.
The Award will be handed to the winner in Perpignan on September 2004,
during one of the showing nights of the Visa pour l’image Festival.
The winner will produce an ongoing one year project which will lead
to an exhibition or showing at the Festival in the 2005 edition.
*The Association of Women Journalists aims to promote the image of women
in the media. With this Award, handed out for the third time, the AFJ
wishes to encourage women to work as photo reporters, to bring their
work to the attention of the media and support them in their projects.
