eLearning Africa photo competition returns

7 Feb 2013

The eLearning Africa Photo Competition returns for its fourth edition. Under the theme 'Tradition and ICT innovation: a couple with potential', budding photographers are encouraged to send in their photos depicting how ICT is enhancing the way individuals and communities in Africa live, learn, cooperate and connect. Deadline for entries is 3 April 2013.

ICT can offer new learning possibilities and ways of communicating and connecting with the modern world. ICT is present in everyday life, enhancing how we live, learn, cooperate and connect. Contributions from all sectors and walks of life are welcome. The photo should show how communication tools and information technologies can be part of and enrich a traditional lifestyle and be accompanied by a brief description outlining the inspiration behind their idea.

Photos can be submitted from now on until 3 April. eLearning and photography enthusiasts from across Africa and the rest of the world have the chance to share their view of ICT in Africa. The winners will be picked by a panel of judges and a public vote. Prizes include a tablet pc, a digital camera and an mp3 player. The participation is free and a selection of the submitted photos will feature in an exhibition at this year's eLearning Africa conference.

The competition is organised by eLearning Africa, the development event for ICT-enhanced education and training in Africa, enabling participants to develop multinational and cross-industry contacts and partnerships, as well as to enhance their knowledge, expertise and abilities.
