The Associació Catalana per la Pau (ACP), International Action Peace (IAP) and the Más Retina collective organize and convene the second edition of the Barcelona International Photography Festival on Human Rights and Global Justice.

The Festival aims to take a look at global problems and their causes using photography as a tool to advance towards greater levels of social justice, environmental sustainability and the exercise of all rights within the framework of the Sustainable Development Goals. The objective is to generate spaces for reflection and information that stimulate critical citizenship, with the ability to intervene in the debates that make up our time.

It will be especially valued the incorporation of the gender perspective, climate justice issues, migrations, the right to housing and, in general, the orientation towards the 17 objectives of the 2030 agenda, the understanding of the global development model and the interdependent relationships between actors and countries and the approach to the causes of conflicts and inequalities.

Prize: The best of the ten projects will receive a prize of 3,000 euros as the winner of the competition and its category, and 400 euros for each winner of the other categories.
