The Open Society Documentary Photography Project supports photography to engage and mobilize people around issues of justice and human rights.
We believe in the power of images to advance social change. Through grants and special initiatives, the Open Society Documentary Photography Project supports photography to engage and mobilize people around issues of justice and human rights.
The guiding philosophy of our project is photography’s ability to record human rights abuses, personalize the effects of conflict, document the struggles and defiance of marginalized people, and inform public discourse. However, where we distinguish ourselves from other photography funders is in our support of projects that go beyond documentation and use the medium to foster civic engagement, education, media attention, advocacy and reform.
Since 1998, the Open Society Documentary Photography Project has exhibited and financed (directly and indirectly) more than 300 photographers from around the world who have examined timely and significant issues that coincide with the Open Society Foundations’ mission.
