In addition, the contest includes a ‘Best Work by an Emerging Photographer’ category, aimed specifically at talented student and trainee photographers. This newcomer award is thematically unrestricted, and also endowed with 5000 euros.
Since 2019, the Felix Schoeller Group – together with the Peace City Osnabrück – has also been awarding the German Peace Prize: the highly prestigious, 10,000-euro award is designed to honour projects addressing the topic of ‘peace’ through the medium of photography.
