Compete Photography 4 Humanity Global Prize
Opportunity Description
International Deadline: July 12, 2026 – Photography 4 Humanity, in partnership with the world-renowned photography museum Fotografiska, has launched HOME, a global open call inviting photographers everywhere to explore one of the most universal—and most fragile—ideas of our time.
In a world shaped by climate disruption, conflict, migration, and displacement, HOME asks emerging artists to capture what home means today: a place of safety, belonging, identity, memory, or loss.
VENUE
Selected photographs will be exhibited at United Nations Headquarters in New York on Human Rights Day, December 10, 2026, in Gallery A—one of the UN’s most prominent public spaces—where diplomats, global leaders, and international visitors will encounter the work.
CURATOR
The exhibition, guest curated by legendary documentary photographer James Nachtwey, will also be shared globally through UN.org, bringing the meaning of home into the heart of the international human rights conversation.
ELIGIBILITY
We’re looking for images that reflect on safety, belonging, dignity, identity, and place. In a time shaped by climate disruption, displacement, and migration, the meaning of home carries new urgency. We welcome photographs that explore this theme through personal, documentary, or conceptual perspectives.
APPLY ONLINE – No Fee
Everyone who has submitted to this Open Call will be notified in October 2026.
