Photographers shortlisted for anthropographia 2009 (in alphabetical order)

Anthropographia reveales the winners of the first edition of the Competition of photojournalism on human rights.

The Grand Prize went to Christophe Chammartin from the Swiss agency Rezo, for Prison de plastique (Plastic Prison) about the extremely difficult living conditions of North African immigrants piled up in shanty towns and exploited by agricultural companies in southern Spain.

Two honorary mentions were attributed to Alfonso Moral, for his work on heroin addiction in Kabul, Afghanistan and to Ed Ou, for his work on the consequences of nuclear weapons tests on Kazakhstan’s civilians.

The Audience Prize went to G.M.B. Akash for Born to Work, about working children under 14 in Bangladesh, reminding us that in that country, 6.3 millions children work in factories.
