 UNICEF Photo of the Year 2007 |  The American photographer Stephanie Sinclair is the winner of the international photo competition “UNICEF Photo of the Yearâ€. Her photo shows a wedding couple in Afghanistan who could not be more opposite. The groom, Mohammed, looks much older than his 40 years. The bride, Ghulam, is still a child; she just turned 11. “The UNICEF Photo of the Year 2007 raises awareness about a worldwide problem. Millions of girls are married while they are still under age. Most of theses child brides are forever denied a self-determined lifeâ€, says UNICEF Patroness Eva Luise Köhler at the award ceremony in Berlin. According to UNICEF, there are about 60 million young women worldwide who were married before they came of age, half of them in South Asia.

One panelist: "The future could bring severe social and environmental impacts, but the Faroese are aware of the dangers and are debating solutions."
