A Picture for Peace – Photo Competition
UNOY Peacebuilders invites you to take part in A Picture for Peace, an international photography contest open to all in honor of International Day of Peace on September 21. Participants are asked to submit a photograph to illustrate their answer to the question, “why are youth important in peacebuilding?” The contest will be run through an app on UNOY Peacebuilders’ Facebook page, and will run from August 14, 2012 (12:00 GMT) to September 13, 2012 (00:00 GMT).
The contest seeks to promote the role of youth as peacebuilders, raise awareness about youth initiatives around the world and encourage young people to participate in peace-building activities. The use of a photograph as a medium facilitates the possibility of evoking a concrete and positive image of youth in peacebuilding.
