The judges for of the “Green Moments - Green Actions - Green Future” photography contest |
The contest is in celebration of World Environment Day and the 2025 Environmental Action Month.
The contest is a communication initiative under the Green Urban Project. The contest aims to raise community awareness about environmental protection, climate change adaptation, promoting a circular economy, green public procurement, and developing low-emission cities. Through creative photographic works rich in content and artistic value, the contest seeks to spread green actions, inspire, and drive behavioural changes in the community for a sustainable future.
The Green Urban Project is funded by the Global Environment Facility through the Asian Development Bank. The Environment Agency is the governing body, with the Institute of Agricultural and Environmental Strategies and Policies as a co-implementing agency. The project’s goal is to enhance institutional capacity for environmental protection and climate resilience in Type II cities.
Nguyen Trung Thang, deputy director of the Green Urban Project Management Board, said, “I believe that artistic photographic works will ignite green awareness, inspiring the community to join hands in protecting the environment, starting with the smallest changes in daily life. The contest is not only an artistic platform but also a call for every citizen to capture, share, and spread green moments and actions to collectively build a green future for the planet.”
“The contest aims to raise community awareness about environmental protection, climate change adaptation, circular economy, green public procurement, and low-emission cities, while honouring green actions through creative photographic works rich in content and artistic value,” said Thang.
The submitted works will contribute to effective communication for the Green Urban Project, spreading the message of sustainable environmental practices and honouring individuals and groups striving to build a green future for the country.
All Vietnamese citizens and foreigners living, studying, or working in Vietnam are eligible to participate. Entries must reflect one of the main themes, such as specific moments in daily life related to environmental protection, circular economy, green public procurement, or the development of low-carbon emission cities. Priority will be given to photos capturing authentic, natural moments without staging.
Submissions can be single photos or photo series, in colour or black-and-white. For the photo series, each participant may submit up to two series, with each series containing five to eight photos.
