See the Story is our free educational publication that provides visitors to our exhibition and website with information on photography and its history, on our visual world and the role of the World Press Photo Foundation in the visual world. We detail how we get to see visual stories, how these are made, and how they raise questions about important issues.

Photographs and digital stories can be interpreted in many ways, and every picture and story we display can lead to different understandings. Through individual stories from our exhibition, we explore important questions for visual storytelling, such as:

• Why is press freedom important?
• How do we get to see visual stories?
• Can stories focus on solutions as well as problems?
• Do we need to see graphic imagery to understand what is happening in the world?
