An image commissioned by the Bernard van Leer Foundation has won the European Foundation Centre’s photo competition. The photo of the young boy from Sikkim, India, was used on the front cover of Early Childhood Matters last November.
74 entries were sent in by foundations, and 13 were shortlisted - including three from the Bernard van Leer Foundation.
Peter Laugharn, the foundation's executive director, commented: "The Bernard van Leer Foundation always tries to use images that gave issues a human face, that show optimism in the face of difficulty, and that show potential and capacity."
