Every candidate will have the opportunity of uploading a picture in one of the following categories:
Images are stories, they represent a frame in time, and however the story of these images goes on. These people’s lives have a past and a future.
What we look for in this category are images that capture a moment in time of an individual(s), these images must express some form of change. The images must show people helping people. People that improve the lives of other that are less fortunate.
We hope that you use this as a platform to speak out, to touch others, and to evoke change in the world. It is in the hands of one individual at a time to start change.
There is more to the environment then pollution and global warming.
What we are looking for images that depict the acts and the elements that pass under the radar of our everyday life and images of people doing their part to improve this, even if they seem small or simple.
We are looking for everyday scenarios that happen. Your images must show the ‘small things’ can cause ‘big’ problems. We also want images of those who put forth a small effort in a positive way, the little hero that makes a change.
Your images are acts of great change, add to the movement in the right direction.

The man is the main cause to the problems that frazzle the ecosystems. Nevertheless, it is true that we are not in a no-exit spiral. Something can be, or rather, must be done.
A quality food product must possess three key characteristics:
It must be good, clean and fair.
Good food gives pleasure; it has organoleptic balance and complexity.
Clean food is food that does not pollute; it respects the environment, the ecosystem where it is produced, biodiversity and the landscape.
Fair food is food produced using labour and market organizations that do not exploit workers, that pay them adequately, respect their culture and land.
