To celebrate the International Day of Forests on 21 March and this year’s theme of Forests and Innovation, FAO is looking for the best photos showcasing different types of innovation:
- new technology – for example drones or other digital tools helping to monitor illegal logging.
- new uses of sustainable wood, such as wooden credit cards, skyscrapers or drink bottles.
- the results of a ground-breaking policy or project or a new way of using Indigenous knowledge.
The five winning images - announced on March 21 – will be shared across FAO’s social media channels and will go on display as part of a photography exhibition at FAO HQ in Rome.
FAO will also send the winners a collection of FAO merchandise including an FAO water bottle, backpack and keep cup!
