World Press Photo 2026 Free exhibition in the Scottish Parliament 19 Oct - 7 Nov

Independent photojournalism and documentary photography are indispensable tools of political education for a democratic society and play an essential role in shaping public opinion especially in our so-called “post-factual” era. In recognition of this, the independent nonprofit organization World Press Photo Foundation, based in Amsterdam, has been presenting the World Press Photo Award for the best photo, the best story, the best long-term project of the year for more than six decades. The winning images in the various categories tell bold stories and provide invaluable insights into the state of our world.

The exhibition is currently available to view in the Scottish Parliament 19 october to 7 November. Entry free.
