In May 2009 and again in September 2009, Adobe Youth Voices, a global youth media initiative, in collaboration with WKCD (What Kids Can Do), asked youth worldwide to submit photographs that capture what is challenging and what gives hope in today’s difficult world--from their unique perspective.

Here we share the winning submissions from both rounds of the Adobe Youth Voices International Photo Competition. In 2010, the photos will appear in a book and a traveling exhibition.

Please join us in celebrating these wonderful young photographers!
