The Lucas Dolega Award will reward a photographer with a donation from La Société des Auteurs des arts visuels et de l’Image Fixe – Saif of 10,000 Euros, an exhibition in Paris and a publication in the album Reporters without borders. The award ceremony will take place in the Mairie de Paris, in the spring of 2021, depending on the sanitary conditions.
The award aims to support and accompany freelance professional photographers working to provide free and independent information. Its essence is to reward a photographer who, through their personal commitment, their involvement in the field, their positions and the quality of their work, will have been able to demonstrate their attachment to freedom of information and democracy.
