The coming year is going to be an exciting and inspiring time and I look forward to meeting you and to the discussions, exchanging of ideas and eventually towards the results this workshop series is sure to produce.

Over the past few months World Press Photo worked in close cooperation with Lietuvos Zurnalistikos Centras (Renita Paleckiene), the Latvian Media Professionals Training Center (Anita Kehre) and with the Estonian Media Center (Taimi Kalvet). Together we have been preparing the program, arranging the logistics and inviting the tutors who will join us in Vilnius. Attached please find the program.

Regarding preparations for the workshop please take careful note of the following;

• Please note carefully that you are personally responsible for the purchase of any insurance, which may be necessary in respect of any loss, injury, or accident occurring during the period of travel.
• In the coming week, please think carefully what you hope to achieve/learn during the workshops. This is important so that we can tailor the seminar to the needs and wishes of the group.
• During the workshop you will be spending a day shooting an assignment. It is important that you bring along your own camera and equipment for this. Film and development will be taken care of locally.
• The theme for the days assignment will be 'Young People at risk'. Please think about what this means to you and what could be topics you could take pictures of.
• Don't forget your portfolio. The tutors will use it to review and discuss your work. Your portfolio is a general overview of your best work that contains no more than 30 press photography images. If possible include 2 stories (max. 12 images per story) and 6 single images. If you only have single images please put together a portfolio of no more than 20 images.

About the workshop

The World Press Photo Baltic 2001-2002 Workshop is intended for 15 professional photojournalists from Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia. The candidates were selected by national selection committees in each of these countries.

The workshop will last 6 days in 2001: 7 September till 12 September, and in the same period another 6 days in 2002. The program is supported by Soros and the European Culture Foundation.

The goals of the workshop are;
- to absorb new information about the priorities and agendas in terms of the range of public issues and concerns that people in the region are dealing with.
- to assess the extent to which the public issues and concerns are being satisfied by both the general level of photographic expertise in the respective countries and the own particular work in this area.
- to examine subject areas and new ways in which photographs will have more impact, comparing different photographic techniques and styles from established journals, examples and case studies.
- to work with communities (through field opportunities) allowing for the investigation of the resource inputs and for the practice and the development of skills necessary to improve the generation of pictures through personal photographic work and ideas.
- to examine the way in which the photograph gets onto the printed page and performs its role of communicating a message to its audience. This reflects the reality that new technology is rapidly penetrating media institutions within the Baltic republics, changing production methods.

In September 2002 an exhibition of the work produced during the assignemt period (September 2001-September 2002) will be organized. The theme of the assignment is ‘Young people at risk’. The exhibition and the catalogue will be
It is important to stress that material made for the purposes of the workshop can be used by World Press Photo and European Cultural Foundation in an exhibition, a brochure, a web site and for publicity purposes under the auspices of the World Press Photo Foundation and European Cultural Foundation.
