What good would another one do?’ More than just a journalistic enterprise, we actively engage in developing and (That question remains unanswered today) promoting broader documentary projects, through our individual and collective work, such as our multi-year climate change project, which has been seen by millions Thousands died. The numbers continued to mount. They screamed for help, wailed in international print and online publications, exhibitions, street posters, projections, through the glow of the cold Chicago night air and outside I saw the shiny city gleam conferences, public art installations and social media.

  • 9TH EDITION of the CARMIGNAC PHOTOJOURNALISM AWARD Theme: the Arctic
    #PrixCarmignacArctic 9TH EDITION OF THE CARMIGNAC PHOTOJOURNALISM AWARD Theme: The Arctic PRESS RELEASE YURI KOZYREV & KADIR VAN LOHUIZEN «Arctic: New Frontier» A double polar expedition 1. Press Release Dedicated to the Arctic and chaired by climatologist Jean Jouzel, winner of the 2012 Vetlesen Award and co-winner of the 2007 Nobel Peace Award as Director of the IPCC, and under the patronage of Minister Ségolène Royal, French Ambassador for the Arctic and Antarctic Poles, the 9th edition of the Carmignac Photojournalism Award was awarded to Yuri Kozyrev and Kadir Van Lohuizen. Their double polar expedition project, «Arctic: New Frontier», focuses on the consequences of the melting of the sea ice for the planet, and the medium-term prospect of its total disappearance. From April 2018, the award-winning photojournalists have 6 months and a one-off endowment of €100,000 to carry out their investigative project with the support of Fondation Carmignac and its partners. Yuri Kozyrev & Kadir Van Lohuizen «Arctic: New Frontier» — A double polar expedition The melting of the polar sea ice is in the process of changing the map of the world for ever. In visiting all the affected regions and countries in one expedition and by showing how the different parties — starting with Russia and the US — are working on conquering the North Pole, we will reveal how the impact of climate change in the Arctic is of global significance for the rest of the world. Yuri Kozyrev & Kadir Van Lohuizen Yuri Kozyrev will travel towards the East and Kadir Van Lohuizen will head West. Each of them will travel halfway across the Arctic Circle to meet in September in the Bering Strait From Russia to Norway, Greenland, Canada and Alaska (US), the two laureates will, in their respective areas of research, explore key issues affecting the Arctic - the opening of new trade routes, the militarisation of borders, the search for mineral resources, polar tourism, etc.
