Reveal the Negative Effects of Corruption – Global Photo Competition

Corruption has devastating effects that can be difficult to illustrate. But images are also powerful tools in raising awareness and bringing about change. Transparency International is currently hosting the Capture Corruption global photo competition with its main theme – Illustrate the negative effects that corruption has on your world. Participants are invited to submit photos that show how corruption affects people’s lives. Competitions organised in partnership with the Thomson Reuters Foundation and the International Anti-Corruption Conference series. There are two age categories in the competition:

- 18-30 years old
