Editors' picks: Our best global photos of 2022 range from heart-rending to hopeful

An infant, a father, a look of exquisite1 tenderness on the dad's face.

This is one of the heart-stirring photos in a story we published this year on kangaroo care: When a baby is born prematurely3, a good way to help the baby survive and thrive is simply to hold it close to a parent's naked chest.

That photo tells you everything you need to know about the bond between a parent and a vulnerable child. The dad is Yappe Pako of the Ivory Coast. His wife gave birth to triplets who were five weeks premature2. One died. The two survivors4 were not thriving. Kangaroo care was a godsend. "I started taking part myself to give the love of a father to my children," says Pako.

This portrait by Andrew Caballero-Reynolds is one of many heartfelt photos featured this year in Goats and Soda5: from a steadfast6 female de-miner in Angola to a Ukrainian opera singer holding the sheet music she brought as a reminder7 of her beloved home as she fled a brutal8 war.

Here are some of our notable photos — and photo-stories — from 2022.
