Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) Student Photo Contest 2017

Deadline: August 30, 2017

The United Nations Information Centre, Tokyo (UNIC Tokyo) and Sophia University are, once again, co-organizing the student photo contest on SDGs with special cooperation from Getty Images Japan. This contest aims to encourage students to “reflect on sustainable development from his or her own perspective, express it through a photo, and share it with others.

They particularly encourage entries that depict elements of SDGs in your own community. A theme pertaining to the SDGs must also exist within your own country. This year, they will be having the TOGETHER Award and the Concept Award as new additions to the list of awards.

Photos should tell a story; they may come in a journalistic form, presenting a clear problem, or may be abstract and creative, representing your ideas and thoughts. What can you do to change the world? How will the SDGs influence the way you think or act? How can you inform your friends, family, and community members of social issues and prompt them to take action? The answers to these questions will become key to achieving the SDGs.
