WELCOME TO SHOOT NATIONS 2009 PRESENTED BY PLAN UK.
The theme for this year's competition is GROWING UP IN THE 21st CENTURY.
This year we want people to look at the world around them and think about their place in it, and any limitations, advantages and opportunities that come with being born male or female.
We want you to focus on stereotyping, on how much who you are is related to whether you are male or female and on the different paths boys and girls are encouraged to tread. Take a closer look at who you really are!
The photos will provide a vivid illustration of the subject from different viewpoints from all over the world.
Submit 3 photographs, drawings or graphic designs that capture:
- Because I am a Girl / Because I am a Boy (pick one)
- What's holding me back?
- What could I be?
Upload your entries for the chance to win great prizes, be exhibited at the United Nations and other sites worldwide.
The competition is open to anyone aged 11 — 25 from anywhere in the world. In previous years the competition has received over 2,500 entries from 108 countries. Over 15,000 people have visited exhibitions of Shoot Nations photographs on 4 different continents — help us make this year even bigger and better!
