This award intends to promote photography as a tool for communicating health and development issues. Photoshare is currently seeking applicants from developing countries who are involved in public health and development programmes; interested in using photography to document issues facing their communities; and in need of a first-time or improved digital camera.

Developing country photographers, both amateur and trained, are encouraged to apply. The winner of this award will receive a digital camera.

Entries must consist of a sample of 5 photographs, or, if you have already entered 5 into the Photoshare collection, smaller entries are also acceptable. Photos may be emailed or mailed along with an application form, including two short written descriptions of your interest in public health and your interest in photographing development issues.
