Concurso FAO

Dear Sir, Madam,

We would like to inform you that entries for participating to the IYP world photography contest "Focus on a global food” will close on 1 September 2008.
The photo competition, promoted by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) in collaboration with Nikon Europe, aims at highlighting the role of the potato as a source of food, employment and income in developing countries.
The winning photographs will be chosen by a selection panel that includes some of the world's leading professionals working in the field of photography.
Winners in the professional and amateur categories will be awarded cash prizes totalling some US$ 11 000 as well as Nikon cameras.
We encourage you to send in your entry by the reception deadline.
