People over 14 years of age, of any occupation or nationality, can participate. Students, amateurs or professional photographers.
The participation of groups or collectives is accepted but it is necessary to choose a representative to complete the form and clarify their conformity with the text of the photographs.
People who have been selected or winners in previous versions can participate.
Topic
The subject of the photographs must revolve around human beings (regardless of age, sex or race) doing some kind of job or trade. This does not mean that works where the human presence is implicit through objects or matter cannot be sent, but it will be the jury who decides on the relevance of these treatments.
In essence, our proposal seeks to focus the gaze of photographers on the human factor as a fundamental protagonist of the production process. In this edition, we especially invite photographers to emphasize the labor consequences of the pandemic in Latin America, including aspects such as confinement, the reinvention of work, telework, underemployment, informality, precariousness, migration and Unemployment.
There are 3 categories at the Latin American level and a Special Category for Colombia on Rural Work.
