World Press Photo 2018

Since 1955, the annual World Press Photo contest has set the standard in visual journalism. World Press Photo 2018 brings you the winners - the most striking images and compelling stories from 2017. Selected from nearly 100,000 pictures taken by over 5,600 photojournalists and documentary photographers from 131 countries, the prize-winning pictures are presented in a moving, sometimes disturbing document. World Press Photo 2018 both informs, and inspires an understanding of the world.
