UNESCO-UNEVOC Skills in Action Photo Competition for Amateur and Professional Photographers

UNESCO-UNEVOC Skills in Action Photo Competition for Amateur and Professional Photographers



UNESCO-UNEVOC wants you to capture interesting moments showcasing how TVET is equipping young people between the ages of 15-29 with skills for the future. This year’s theme is Skilling youth for the future and submissions should focus on one or all of the following:

  • TVET for a sustainable future – photos highlighting green jobs and skills

  • Skills for a digitalized world – photos highlighting the digitalization of training and work

  • Inclusive TVET – photos highlighting the importance of ensuring equal access to quality TVET, regardless of gender, ethnicity, nationality or disability.

    Do’s and Don’ts

    Do’s

  • Decide on your thematic area(s) of focus. This will ensure that your entry avoids being filtered out for not adhering to the theme.

  • Use a camera that can output high-resolution photos with a minimum of 3000 pixels on the longest side with 300 DPI/PPI setting. Exempted from this are photos taken using mobile phones in the highest resolution (acceptance of this type of entry is based on the quality of the submission).

  • Ensure that you have the consent of the people in the picture, especially if the focus is on a single person.

  • You can make simple edits to the photo but these need to be specified in the submission form.

    Don’ts

  • Don’t submit an entry of a photo collage (multiple photos on one frame).

  • Don’t put watermarks, signature or any overlays on your picture.

  • Don’t send pictures that are not related to any of the thematic areas.
