Fondée en 2007 à l’initiative de Stanley Greene et de Kadir Van Lohuizen, l’agence Noor rassemble des photographes internationalement reconnus pour leur talent et leur engagement.

Fédérant aujourd’hui 13 photographes, Noor bénéficie au travers de sa fondation du soutien de Nikon depuis 2009. Ce partenariat a été fondé sur une volonté commune : agir ensemble pour la promotion d’un photojournalisme éthique et responsable au travers de projets de groupe traitant de problématiques contemporaines, et former les talents émergeants du photojournalisme à travers des workshops animés par les photographes de Noor.
