Beginning in 1962, the World Press Photo Foundation has had an annual book published, featuring all prize-winning entries. World Press Photo 2020's Yearbook will prove to be another must-have edition, bringing together the very best press photographs from 2019, carefully selected from thousands of powerful, moving, and sometimes disturbing images.

It was founded in 1955 when a group of Dutch photographers organised a contest (World Press Photo) to expose their work to an international audience. In the six decades since then, the contest has grown into the world's most prestigious photography competition.
