Drawing competition on climate and food

4 October 2008

The competition is addressed to children and young people from 6 to 20 years of age, who are encouraged to create a logo (emblem) for the  ’Our World, Our Climate, Our Food’ youth education project. 

As part of the joint FAO-WAGGGS youth education project, this competition aims to raise awareness among children and young people about climate change, environment and food security.

Prizes of US$250 will be awarded to the winner  in each age group (6-10, 11-15 and 16-20 years old), US$150 will be awarded to the runner up in each age group and US$100 will be awarded to the third best drawing  in each age group. From the three age group winners an overall best design will be selected and the overall winner will be invited to FAO headquarters, in Rome, Italy, to see how his/her drawing will be used.

The deadline for submitting drawings is 10 November 2008. Send your drawings by e-mail to children-youth@fao.org or by post to:
