Prix Photo CCFD–TERRE SOLIDAIRE 2025

PHOTO AWARD OF THE CCFD-TERRE SOLIDAIRE ORGANIZATION
The International Prize for Humanist and Environmental Photography
“Face the world”

A DESIRE TO RAISE AWARENESS
The CCFD-Terre Solidaire has always considered photography as a powerful lever to witness its action around the world and support its mission of raising awareness. It encourages the indispensable engagement of photographers-authors, who through their eyes, testify to social and environmental realities often ignored and carry the voice of populations too often invisible.
Created in 2022, the CCFD-Terre Solidaire Photo Prize is a concrete expression of our organization’s desire to support the work of photographers, who are true companions on the road, and to open up debate. At the intersection of the world of NGOs and photography, this award is distinguished by its ambition: to make each image an invitation to understand the world and to meet the challenges to build a united Earth.
The CCFD-Terre Solidaire has long maintained a strong relationship with humanist photography, embodied in particular by her meeting with photographer Sebastião Salgado in 1973, whom she supported from the beginning and who is now Honorary President of the Prize.
“To see the world is to allow everyone to turn their gaze into action”
