CIWEM launched the annual Environmental Photographer of the Year (EPOTY) competition 15 years ago, to celebrate people’s ability to innovate and survive. EPOTY’s winning images force you to stop and think about our impact on the planet and inspire us to try to live sustainably.
We expect these photos to be challenging and will raise tough, but important issues such as environmental racism and exploitation. But we also want our photographic platform to uphold the rights and dignity of the people who appear in EPOTY photos.

The winners of the 2022 Environmental Photographer of the Year are today announced. The competition, launched by CIWEM and WaterBear and presented by Nikon in association
with MPB and supported by Arup, attracted thousands of online submissions from over 159
countries.
The EPOTY team is a huge fan of the work that MPB does in the space of circularity and extending the lifespan of your camera kit. To learn a bit more about how that all works, we caught up with Rachel Thompson, VP of Sustainability.
We are extremely pleased to welcome MPB as an associate partner on the Environmental Photographer of the Year 2023 competition!
