International Women in Photo provides a platform for women photographers and promotes their work to a wide and diverse audience thus contributing to a plurality of visions. Its mission is to encourage and help women photographers to gain global recognition in order for them to move forward creatively and professionally.
Over the past years, the award has attracted thousands of women photographers of different origins and cultural backgrounds, with over 800 photographers participating in 2020 from over 80 countries and 6 continents.
Following an inaugural exhibition, the exhibition is to travel to cities in the Middle East/Asia, and Europe, including Dubai, Tokyo, and Geneva.

Every year, itinerant exhibitions are organized around the world in Asia, the Middle East, and Europe to showcase the works of the Laureate and finalists.
