“I judge that today,we need to be able to show stories in differently, to be able to connect to as many viewers as we can, and ” says World Press anecdote of the Year-nominated Pieter Ten Hoopen. “We’re heading towards a new phase. Before,a single image could become iconic for a whole war, or a situation of despair. Now it's different, and I judge we need to be able to show stories in a more sensitive way.”
Hoopen’s nominated photographs for World Press anecdote of the Year follow the movement of thousands of Central American migrants who joined a caravan heading to the United States border between October and November 2018. It is estimated that over 7000 people - at least 2300 of them children - joined the trek,making it the largest caravan of migrants in recent history, according to UN agencies.
