Each year, the Global Health Council holds a photography contest inviting both amateurs and professionals to submit selections of their work which illustrate the theme of the Council's core issues of women's health, child health, infectious diseases, HIV/AIDS and emerging health threats. The Contest is dedicated to drawing attention to health issues that have a global impact and to celebrate this year's conference theme, Partnerships: Working Together for Global Health.

The Global Health Council recognises the ability of photography to convey great emotional depth and understanding of issues which are often difficult to discuss, and seeks to highlight the important contributions to understanding and action made by the winner of the award. The winner's work will be prominently displayed at the conference and will appear in Global Health Council publications with attribution.
