Beatrix Seyfert, winner of the 6th International Creative Contest 2014, receives this year’s Hasselblad prize in the Photography discipline for the themes 'Feelings expressing harmony and peace' and 'Preventing violence with a happy childhood'.

These photographs are positive messages to all parents and adults involved in bringing up children - give children a feeling of security, give them wonderful experiences, confidence and assurance. Treat children well, and these children will in all likelihood not turn to violence.

The conditions of participation in the annual Creative Contest, a media competition in nine disciplines, are available online here.
