Object : The monthly photojournalism magazine DAYS JAPAN was launched in March 2004 in response to the burgeoning demand for quality reporting from the world’s many war fronts and conflicts that claim so many lives today. The world-class photographers who contribute to our publication do their work at great peril, many risking their lives for their shots. Regardless of how the photos are taken, DAYS JAPAN aims to always tell the truth from the perspective of victimized civilians and not of those exercising authority through military or other power.
Jury 2010 : Tsuneo ENARI (photographer), Keisuke KUMAKIRI (photographer), Yoshino OISHI (photojournalist), Kayoko IKEDA (writer/translator), Renée C. BYER (photojournalist), Yoji YAMADA (Film Director), Tokiko KATO (Singer), John G. MORRIS (Photo Editor of LIFE, MAGNUM etc.) and Ryuichi HIROKAWA (photojournalist/editor in chief, DAYS JAPAN)
