The International Chamber of Commerce Photographic Award 2015
The International Chamber of Commerce Photographic Award 2015aims at stimulating a dialog around the global challenge of climate change by celebrating artistic skill and outstanding photography.
The Award invites professional and amateur photographers from all over the world to submit applications reflecting the theme of #OurClimate: from the causes and impacts of climate change, to a possible response (past, present or future) to one of the biggest challenges facing humanity.
Entries will be judged by a distinguished international jury chaired by John Danilovich, Secretary General of the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC). The winning photographs will be exhibited alongside a selection of shortlisted images that most powerfully illustrate the theme of #OurClimate.
The exhibition will be held in December 2015 during the landmark Paris Climate Conference (COP21), at ICC Global Headquarters in Paris. The winners will be announced at ICC’s COP21 gala reception on 8 December.
