Applications are now open for the 2024 European Environment Agency Photo Competition. Calling all nature and photography enthusiasts! The European Environment Agency (EEA) invites you to showcase your photographic talent in the 2024 edition of the annual photo competition.
This year’s competition “Urban Treasures” is a call for us to capture the essence of our cities and towns through inspiring moments that give us joy and hope for a more sustainable tomorrow. The urban theme celebrates the positive strides we are making towards a better environment and encourages a reflection on how we can build more eco-friendly and liveable neighbourhoods.
