WHAT TO CAPTURE
The SEARCA PHOTO CONTEST 2013 will award entries that best capture the efforts that Southeast Asians do to ensure that there is affordable, nutritious, and safe food on our tables. We are looking for photographs that emphasize all the livelihood activities along the food supply chain—from scientists who develop agricultural technologies to input dealers (banks, seed dealers, pesticide and fertilizer dealers); to farmers and fishers; to transporters of harvests to markets; to food processors; to food sellers and distributors; and finally to consumers—that contribute to a food-secure Southeast Asia.
Photos of farmers and fishers, of people carrying their harvest or animals and vehicles transporting crops to markets, of people processing food for personal consumption or for selling, and of people buying food and eating them, are encouraged. Images that highlight new agricultural technologies that are being applied to ensure that food is nutritious and safe are also welcome. We also encourage photographs that show food insecurity or malnutrition. These are images that will bring home the message that there is an urgent need for a more united and concerted effort to address food security in the region.
ANNOUNCEMENT OF WINNERS
Winners will be notified via e-mail. SEARCA has the right to offer the prize to the next winning entry if and only if the winner does not initiate any contact by 20 December 2013.
Winners are requested to be present to receive their awards on the week of SEARCA’s 47th anniversary during the opening of the exhibit of winning entries. They will be expected to shoulder the cost of their travel to claim their prizes. Winners who are not able to attend the ceremonies shall notify SEARCA on how organizers may send them their prizes.
The winning photos will also be showcased on the Virtual Photo Exhibit on the SEARCA website, SEARCA Facebook and the LED Board.
