Photo competition banner

Many people across Europe are passionate about climate action and making a positive impact on our society – and we are here to highlight those captured moments!

The Climate Pact photo competition is showcasing the different kinds of climate action taking place around us, all of which is making Europe more sustainable for the future.

The deadline to submit your climate action photo was Monday 1 July 2024.

We are now deciding the winners and we need your help!

A jury consisting of photography experts, Climate Pact Ambassadors and European Commission representatives will decide on 9 winning photos from three categories:

Capturing climate action:

  • at home
  • in the community
  • in cities

But that’s not all. We are now gearing up for a public vote to find out which entry is your top climate action shot.

From 16 July to 9 August 2024, you will be able to vote for your favourite climate action photo.

Prizes

The 10 winners (3 per category + 1 selected in a public vote) will:

  • be invited to the EU Climate Pact annual event in Brussels in 2025, with travel and accommodation covered
  • have their winning photo featured in two exhibitions: at the EU Hub at COP29 in Baku, Azerbaijan, and the Pact annual event in Brussels
  • receive a digital certificate
  • be featured across the Climate Pact's digital platforms

The four first-place winners (main winner per category + public vote winner) will be featured in an international media campaign on Vox.com.

Why a photo competition?

The European Climate Pact is a movement of people taking steps to build a more sustainable Europe. It’s a place to learn about climate change, develop and implement solutions, and connect with others for an even bigger impact.

Through the photo challenge, we hope to:

  • shine a light on climate change and its impacts
  • recognise the climate action that is being taken all around us
  • inspire you with creative ways to act for the climate
  • drive change across Europe
