Your View. Your Perspective. Your Picture.
Get your camera ready and take a picture that makes a creative statement for diversity, against discrimination. See your work published on posters and flyers all across the EU.
Participate in the European Photo Competition and win € 3,000 for yourself and € 3,000 for your university or school. The runner-up will receive € 2,000 and the third-placed entry € 1,000. The best entries will be featured in a travelling exhibition across Europe.
The Competition
The EU information campaign ‘For Diversity. Against Discrimination.’ is inviting photography, art and design students from across the EU to make a creative statement for diversity by entering its "Breaking Stereotypes" Photo Competition. Students are asked to create a photo or photo collage that promotes diversity and appeals to a young audience.
An international jury of photographers, young artists and well-known experts in the fields of design and communication will select the best photos. Contributions will be judged according to their creativity and originality, as well as universal European appeal.
Who may enter?
The competition is open to students of photography, fine arts, graphic design, communication design, visual communications, media design and other related disciplines. Participants need to be registered at an academy, university or college in one of the 27 EU Member States. Individual as well as team submissions of up to three students are permitted.
Win prizes worth € 9,000
The lucky winners will be awarded prizes worth up to € 3,000. In addition, for their support, the overall winner’s university or college will be awarded € 3,000 to promote creative talents or to invest in school equipment. The 35 best photos will be featured in an exhibition in Brussels and then travel to the capital cities of the three place-winners.
How to enter
Take your own camera or your school’s equipment and go hunting for a powerful image. Feel free to edit the picture in colour or design, or even put several images together. But remember, all pictures used need to be your own. Once your design is formatted correctly (more info here) you are ready to enter the competition. Send in a copy of the picture on paper and upload a preview and the original photo through our entry form. Please read the rules of the competition before submitting your entry. Photos will be accepted until 30th June 2007. There are no entry fees.
