The challenge is a competition to encourage students to rethink how waste is handled. We support you to limit and convert your waste into valuable reusable items and works of art. To enter this challenge, the student will make a piece of art or valuable item from things they would usually have thrown away. Take pictures documenting the procedure from waste pick up to making the item to the final product and what it is used for. A panel of judges will sit to decide on the winning entries.

This year's photography theme is ‘Upcycle your Trash’. 

Please send us your photos that inspire you under this theme.

We have a  €100 cash prize for the winning photo and merchandise for both the winner and runner-up
