Picture This: Caring for the Earth

picturePicture This: Caring for the Earth is a photo contest seeking out positive images documenting ordinary people on the African continent and their work to mitigate or prevent the consequences of climate change and environmental degradation.

While the poorest in developing countries are often the first to feel these effects, they are also the true experts and potentially the most powerful advocates for protecting their own environmental future.

Contestants must enter either as professionals or amateurs, not both. They can make either, not both single photo and photo essay submissions. For more information, please read the rules and disclaimers.
