Photography Contest Environment Gualeguaychú 2007
Expires April 20, 2007
Opens the call for the first Photo Contest Environment Gualeguaychú 2007. The project, which stems from the need to raise awareness about caring for nature, its key lies in the spread of the relationship that sustainable development is in our daily lives through work, health, culture, tourism and the right to choose and decide how we want to live as a community.
For that, it was invited to attend all kinds of photographers: professionals and amateurs, big and small, from both banks of the river and beyond the river, creating the need and importance of the struggle to care for nature .
Outside the main competition, there will be two special categories.
The Social-Environmental History, which, through photographs from all periods (taken by our grandfathers, fathers, uncles) to portray the state of the river over time and serve to create a file of great value in the images of the river and its residents. And the International, which will collect images from around the world related to other conflicts between the pulp and the environment. Here the idea is simply to multiply the eyes and unify the voices of those calling for their right to live in a healthy environment.
