We have selected Azadeh Besharati and Salih Basheer to receive a scholarship each from The VII Foundation to study at our Photo I programme in the fall 2020.
Azadeh Besharati receives the The Alexandra Boulat Grant in remembrance of the late, prize winning French photographer, who was a member and co-founder of VII Photo Agency.
Salih Basheer receives The Shahidul Alam Grant in honour of the great importance Shahidul Alam has for the development of independent photojournalism in the World.
The two students from Bangladesh, Pranabesh Das and Arafat Siraji, are supported by an Erasmus exchange between the two schools, Pathshala in Bangladesh and DMJX in Denmark.
