leica european publishers award for photography 2008

(As I am currently preparing to post some of my information/research about black photographers and publishing [I'm not ignoring you, Intisar & ABG, I'm just still working on it], this one seems particularly significant)

The Leica European Publishers Award for Photography is a major
initiative to encourage the publication of contemporary photography.

Open to photographers world-wide, the competition is a unique
collaboration between seven European Publishers – Actes Sud (France),
Apeiron (Greece), Dewi Lewis Publishing (Great Britain), Edition Braus
(Germany), Lunwerg Editores (Spain), Mets & Schilt (The Netherlands)
and Peliti Associati (Italy).

The competition requires the submission of a substantial, completed
and unpublished photographic book project. The winning project is then
published in book form simultaneously by each of the publishers in
their own country resulting in perhaps the most extensive cultural
collaboration currently existing in Europe.
