The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) was founded on November 16, 1945. It is a specialized agency of the United Nations aimed at promoting world peace and security through international cooperation in education, arts, sciences and culture.
Photographs will be selected on their originality, creativity, photographic quality and relevance to the theme of the 2023 edition:
Youth-in-action, working towards creating a better future for all, such as fighting climate change, building peace, strengthening civic space, empowering youth and any other relevant action to UNESCO’s work.
The choice will be made according to the discretion of the Selection Committee. No appeals will be considered.
The shortlisted entries chosen by the UNESCO Youth Selection Committee will be featured on the Facebook page where the top photos with the most interactions (likes, shares, and comments) will be declared the winners.
The three winners will receive recognition for their contribution to making a difference in the world by being featured in three separate posts with photos, descriptions and links to the photographer’s social media accounts on the Facebook page.
They will also be featured in a Web story on UNESCO’s website to announce the 3 winners and present their photos and stories.
