Deadline: February 8, 2015
FOREST EUROPE invites individuals to the second edition of the Show Off Your Forest Photography Contest. This year, they are setting a new photographic challenge: show how forests protect us and how we can protect them. Their interest is for you to tell them with the aid of one or several photos the benefits forests provide us with and how they protect us. Show what threats they face and what would happen if forests were not protected. Show how they are being protected and how you can protect them.
For over two decades, the signatory countries of the FOREST EUROPE process have been developing policies and tools to protect forests, promoting sustainable management, education and research on forests, and raising awareness of how forests contribute to a healthy environment and human well-being.
