Images Of Rural Europe – Be Part Of It

ENRD is delighted to announce that an exciting photo competition targeted at Local Action Groups all across the EU has been launched.

The ‘Images of Rural Europe’ initiative aims to promote and celebrate rural development in Europe. The competition will involve the collection of diverse range photos which reflect rural life in Europe today – the winning entries of which will be displayed at a major exhibition at the prestigious Berlaymont building, in Brussels from 22 June to 10 July, 2012. In addition, winning photographers and LAGs will be invited to attend a high profile awards ceremony, in the presence of the Commissioner for Agriculture and Rural Development Dacian Cioloş, on 27 June, 2012.

Additional follow-up activities to the awards include a touring exhibition across Europe and a hardcover glossy photo-book to be published later in the year.

Taking part couldn’t be simpler! The Images of Rural Europe photo competition is open to all professional and amateur photographers who are resident in any of the EU Member States. Each entrant may submit as many photos as s/he wishes but only LAGs will be allowed to upload pictures via the dedicated website www.ruralimages.eu. Therefore, NRNs’ role is crucial in order to involve as much as possible their LAGs. We also strongly encourage LAGs to consider organising competitions at local level to select the best pictures to be submitted to the Images of Rural Europe exhibition.
