GLF Photo Competition 2019 in Kyoto, Japan
  • Kyoto

Global Landscapes Forum (GLF) is headed to Kyoto where hundreds of international experts will explore how to win the race against global warming and build a climate-smart future. Challenging business-as-usual activities involves developing a roadmap to shift policies, industries and habits onto a sustainable trajectory. The organisation and partners aim to inspire a global movement to get on track and showcase how changes are already happening across countries and landscapes. They are calling on participants to fuel that inspiration through their photos.

Participants can share their best photographs to show GLF the changes the participants observe. The participants need to capture how people, communities and businesses are making a difference by switching their habits to tackle climate change. GLF wants to see innovative recycling, biodiversity conservation, food production, manufacturing and transportation initiatives. They are interested in transformative diets and lifestyles, plastic use and trade and supply chains, making the fashion industry sustainable and more.

A panel of judges selected by GLF (to be announced) will select up to 25 photos from all eligible submissions received during the competition period. Please note that while one person can submit more than one photo, any single contributor can have just one finalist photo. Finalists will be chosen based on the following criteria:

  • Creativity (30%)
  • Photographic quality (30%)
  • Composition (30%)
  • Execution of theme (10%)

On March 26, the finalist photos will be published on GLF platforms and the public will have the opportunity to vote the photos they like best. The submission that receives the highest number of votes during the voting period will be deemed the Grand Prize winner, subject to verification and compliance with these official rules. The Grand Prize Winner will be announced on April 12, 2019 on the GLF website and social media channels. All finalists will have their images featured on GLF platforms.
