Deadline: July 15, 2015
Send entries for the PES Group’s Photo Competition. The theme of the 2015 edition is “Living together”. The competition gives the chance to emerging and confirmed talents from all over Europe to capture through their lens images encapsulating one of the founding values of the European Union, that is United in Diversity.
At a moment when differences are exacerbated and fears stirred by some opportunist and populist movements throughout the EU and beyond, European Socialists and Progressives in the Committee of the Regions find it important to recall that living together remains one of the EU’s biggest assets and a cornerstone of democratic societies. Capture your idea of “Living Together” with your camera.
