Microfinance Photo Contest
Posted by microfinance on August 20, 2009
The Microfinance Insights Annual Photo Contest 2009, “Global Shades of Development” has launched and we would like to invite entries from enthusiasts of microfinance, photography and social enterprise around the world.
The objective of the competition is to provide a fresh context to the subject of Microfinance – one that resonates with our increasingly diverse, global audience. Images transcend geographical and cultural boundaries, and we would like to use this medium to help our audience understand Microfinance better.
The winning photos will be displayed at Zenzi in Bandra, Mumbai, India, followed by a three-week long exhibition. The contest provides photographers with a great public forum in which to display their talent; gain valuable feedback from our judges; and, benefit from the satisfaction of having contributed to the social development sector.
The entries will be judged by a combination of readers’ votes and a panel that includes S. Paul, who has been called the Henry Cartier Bresson of India, and renowned social documentary photographer, Ken Light.
The contest, which is open to the general public, will be accepting entries until Sept. 31, 2009. Each participant is allowed to submit a maximum of 10 photographs and there is no participation fee. So, let your imagination flow and try to create a unique, unseen perspective for Microfinance Insights’ readers and judges!
For more information and submission of your entries, please visit our website www.microfinanceinsights.c
