Kasali Ako sa Pagbabago Poetry Contest
Deadline: extended to 6 November 2010


Celebrate Social Development Week 2010 with us by joining our very first Photo and Poetry Contest!

The Caucus of Development NGO Networks (CODE-NGO), a coalition of NGO networks committed to social development, invites YOU to be part of the change. Through photos and poetry, share with us your view of what it means to be active in your community and in making it better. Entries should capture Filipino citizens who help transform the lives of others in a community. What we aim to highlight are the voluntary efforts of ordinary people or organized groups to help bring about change and growth for our country. Photographs and poems will be judged mainly by their creativity and originality, composition, artistic merit, and content.

Get the chance to win P7,000 (1st Prize), P5,000 (2nd Prize) or P3,000 (3rd Prize) for each of the two categories.

Who may join: Young amateur photographers and poets 16 to 30 years old.
