Closing date for submission of entries: 15 March 2009.

The winners will be announced at the Living Together Congress in March 2009. Their work will be showcased throughout the region as a travelling exhibition.

The competition will link up with a series of public events called photographic treasure hunts – contributing to further arts activity across the region.

As a cross-cultural, language-free communication, we believe that art can be a powerful tool for expressing ideas, issues and experience. We particularly want the competition to encourage young people to express their thoughts on issues of diversity, participation in public life and intercultural dialogue.
