My Corruption-Free Africa Photo/Essay competition



Corruption Watch is now accepting entries for the “My Corruption-Free Africa” Competition 2015. My Corruption Free Africa is a Pan-African writing and photographic competition that invites entrants from across the continent to send stories and images with the theme of Corruption through my eyes. Entrants may enter both the photography and writing categories, but may only submit one entry per section.



Prizes:
Winner - $1 000
1st runner-up - $500
2nd runner-up - $250


Eligibility:
Any African youth between the ages of 16 – 30 may submit an entry into the writing and photography competition.

Employees of Corruption Watch
are not eligible to enter the
competition or win awards.


Application Process:

Participants will submit their entries to mcfa@corruptionwatch.org.za
Visit Submition Guidelines for contest rules

Review Process:
First round: The public votes – all eligible applications, as approved by an internal selection
committee, will be made available on corruptionwatchconnected.org . The public will have the opportunity to vote for their favourite piece and the top 60 entrants (30 for writing and 30 for
photography) will go through to the second round.


Wildcards will be introduced to increase the chance of applicants from less ICT-enabled  countries, who by definition will have a more difficult time crowdsourcing votes. The wildcards will be decided upon by the internal selection committee.

 Second round: Independent panel selection – two independent panels will be nominated by Corruption Watch to review the entries and a winner, with two runner-ups, will be selected in each category.

Deadline: 27 Feb 2015
