How do you see development? How can you portray the human face of the development processes? How do you show that development initiatives and programmes improve the lives of people? The Global Photography Campaign on Humanizing Development launched on 1 June 2009 aims to promote and showcase visual examples of people winning the battle against poverty, social exclusion and marginalization by bringing light and life into the above questions.

All photographs should fit into one of the campaign's fourteen different thematic areas related to the Millennium Development Goals, such as eradicating extreme poverty and hunger, expanding access to food, clean water, sanitation, education and health services for the poor, and promoting women's leadership and equal opportunity in education and employment.

Some of the key outcomes of the campaign will include a photography gallery; a series of photography exhibitions in several cities around the world; and a photography database that will be shared with the campaign partners and several United Nations agencies and departments.
