WASHINGTON, 29 de noviembre de 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- CGAP anunció hoy que el ganador de su 2016 Photo Contest ha sido Zay Yar Lin de Myanmar. La foto ganadora, "Lend a Helping Hand", fue elegida de más de 3.000 participantes de 70 países por su impresionante composición y tierno retrato de una niña ayudando a su padre a hacer cerámica para vender.

Descubre el comunicado de prensa multimedia interactiva aquí: http://www.multivu.com/players/English/7878251-2016-cgap-photo-contest-winners

La fotografía fue tomada en el municipio de Twante cerca de la casa del fotógrafo en Yangon. Lin compartió que aunque es un marinero de oficio, la fotografía es su pasión. Y dijo "Creo que la fotografía ayuda a las personas a ver y sentir. Me encanta capturar la cultura de la gente y los lugares y su vida cotidiana".

Aunque la cerámica de Twante es conocida en todo Myanmar y está en gran demanda, la generación más joven continúa buscando oportunidades fuera del municipio. Los jueces comentaron cómo la fotografía capta el paso de una destreza con valor, pero potencialmente disminuyendo, de una generación a otra.

Dos mil millones de personas de todo el mundo no tienen acceso a servicios financieros básicos como cuentas de ahorro y crédito. Hay evidencia creciente de que la inclusión financiera es un factor crítico para muchos de los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible adoptados por las Naciones Unidas para dirigir la agenda de desarrollo global, como el fomento de la educación de calidad y la promoción de la igualdad de género. Durante 11 años, el concurso anual de fotografía CGAP ha buscado imágenes atractivas y originales que muestren el impacto que la inclusión financiera puede tener en la vida de las personas del mundo.

El 2016 CGAP Photo Contest invitó a presentaciones en cuatro áreas clave que contribuyen al avance de la inclusión financiera: (1) dinero móvil e innovaciones en finanzas digitales; (2) empoderamiento económico de las mujeres; (3) resistencia; y (4) pequeños negocios. El panel de los jueces estaba formado por Nicole Cappello, directora de fotografía en National Geographic; Emily Epstein, Editora Visual en The Atlantic; e Indira Williams Babic, directora de fotografía y recursos visuales en el Newseum.

Los tres jueces compartieron sus pensamientos sobre el proceso de selección.

Nicole Cappello dijo fue "una lección de humildad ver el orgullo y la resistencia y la perseverancia de las personas de todo el mundo".

Emily Epstein compartió que "este tipo de trabajo no es algo que exista en servicios por cable. El mensaje es uno de respeto a las personas a cargo de su propio destino".

Indira Williams Babic declaró que "la fotografía es uno de los más poderosos medios de contar una historia. Ser capaz de contar tu historia a través de imágenes, que son accesibles a todo el mundo, es una buena manera de fomentar tu misión".

El ganador del 2016 Grand Prize recibirá un certificado por valor de 2.000 dólares para material fotográfico y una exposición de su fotografía ganadora en el Times Square Jumbotron de Nueva York.
