In celebration of its 25th anniversary, the European Committee of the Regions invites you to showcase your photographic skills and to “capture” Europe in your regions by participating in the “Capturing [Y]our Europe” photography competition, organized by the trainees of the Committee with the support of its Members.
Are you interested in sharing the Europe experience from your region?
Then, grab your camera, get out there and join this extraordinary competition by Capturing [Y]our Europe!
Whether it is a community center built with EU funding or the best friendship made through an Erasmus exchange programme, you shall creatively depict the impact of the EU in your region and your personal life.
What do you need to do?
Answer the question “How do you feel the presence of the EU where you live?” in two pictures.
- The first photograph will represent the EU’s impact in your region.
- The second will represent your hope for the future or what/how the EU could do better.
