Call for Entries: Leica Women Foto Project Award 2023
The Leica Women Foto Project serves to empower the female perspective and its impact on today’s visual stories.
They believe the shape of a story is reactive to the storyteller’s perspective, developing a narrative that too often is reflective of individual truths.
The Leica Women Foto Project encourages diversity and inclusion in visual storytelling to amplify voices typically underrepresented in photography, discovering the breadth of shapes formed by a single story. Conceived in 2019, the initiative has evolved to offer cash awards, mentorship and business opportunities and Leica equipment to serve the female perspective in the world of photography.
