2009 Imagine Cup Photography Competition

February 9th, 2009 by graceskye and tagged ,

2009 Imagine Cup Theme: “Imagine a world where technology helps solve the toughest problems facing us today”

A message from the Photography Captain:
The Millenium Development Goals are big goals! To me, they seem almost impossible to solve. How can we help kids around the world finish their primary education? Reduce child mortality? Eradicate poverty? Thru pictures - I can tell a story. Through photos, we can ensure that every single person in the world is aware of these problems, and show them examples on how to change the world just a little. The only way to solve these challenges is all together. If some years ago a 12 year old girl stood up in front of the world leaders to raise these issues, why don’t you do the same with the tools you have handy? Hear Bono talking about one of these issues and then think about the way you can do… anything. Talk to your friends that love photography, create a team, invite other students to participate in the competition and tell the story. WE can do something. Happy shooting!
- Leandro Doeyo
