World Press Photo of the Year 2015

Australske Warren Richardson har vunnet World Press Photo of the Year 2015. Bildet han gikk til topps med vant også førsteprisen i kategorien Spot News. Vinnerbildet viser flyktninger som krysser grensen mellom Serbia og Ungarn.

- Jeg bodde med flyktningene i fem dager ved grensen. En gruppe på 200 stykker beveget seg ved trærne og gjerdet ved grensen. Først sendte de barn og kvinner over, deretter fedrene og de eldre. Jeg må ha vært med gruppen i rundt fem timer. Vi lekte katt og mus med politiet hele natten. Da jeg tok bildet var jeg helt utmatet. Det var rundt klokken tre på natten. Jeg kunne ikke bruke blitz, da ville jeg avslørt dem ovenfor politiet. Jeg hadde kun månelyset som lyskilde.

Chinese men pull a tricycle in a neighborhood next to a coal-fired power plant in Shanxi, China, on 26 November 2015. A history of heavy dependence on burning coal for energy has made China the source of nearly a third of the world's total carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, the toxic pollutants widely cited by scientists and environmentalists as the primary cause of global warming.

"Recently, I just realized that I was not guilty. This is nobody's fault. I'm working on it, and everything is much better. I understand that all the worst is over, and now I'm trying to reestablish contact with my parents. They thought that I grew up very strong and independent. But it is not so. Now it’s like I just came back to life and I'm a child again. It’s interesting for me to touch, feel, play, go on a picnic. I just learned how to ride a bike this year." Kiev, Ukraine, 30 June 2015.

Elisha Morrow and Tiffany Berkland were sexually harassed by the same company commander when they were in basic training after joining the Coast Guard. They did not report the harassment for fear of being kicked out but came forward when they met a third victim. When their case went to trial, they met a fourth young woman who had been raped recently by the same company commander. Berkland and Morrow are guilt ridden for not coming forward sooner. They sit in their hotel room after attending the Truth and Justice Summit on MST in Washington, D.C., US, 18 April 2013.
