For 10 years, the PhMuseum Women Photographers Grant has brought together photographers from different generations, geographies, and photographic traditions.

Created in partnership with MPB, Europe’s top camera reseller, this free guide features essays, conversations, practical advice, historical reflections, and contributions.

Part celebration, part practical resource, this guide looks at the history of women and non-binary photographers, the realities of navigating the industry, and lessons from a decade of prize recipients and jurors, with the hope of offering inspiration, insights, and new perspectives.
