The international photo and video contest by the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) is open until September 30, 2013. The contest is aimed at highlighting the benefits of the Kyoto Protocol’s Clean Development Mechanism and the importance of market-based approaches in the international response to climate change.
The winning works will be displayed in a dedicated booth at the UNFCCC Climate Change Conference in Warsaw in November 2013, while short-listed entries could feature prominently in important print and promotional material, on the UNFCCC website and social media.
With the photo contest’s theme, “CDM Changing Lives” , striking images should showcase CDM projects or their related benefits.
The video phone contest should highlight the benefits of a registered CDM project and/or able to explain in a clear and concise way how the CDM is contributing to the international response to climate change and sustainable development. The 30-second (or less) video should be recorded completing the phrase: “People should know about this CDM project because?” or “People should know about the CDM because?”
