Deadline: May 6, 2018
Entries are invited for UNESCO and Juventus Photo Contest 2018. Football holds enormous power and potential to bring people of different cultures and countries together. UNESCO and Juventus call on you to activate this power and spread a message of peace and tolerance through stories of football. Let’s build an online movement where pictures tell a thousand words. This is a free-of-charge photo contest on the theme how football promotes and fosters inclusion, unity and tolerance, and overcomes discrimination.
All you need to do is send a photo which showcases football’s potential to promote inclusion, overcome stereotypes and overturn discrimination in all its forms. Speak up, share your football story with the world and have the chance to win prizes and be featured in a campaign video.
It’s simple, what are you waiting for? Grab your camera and get snapping!
