UN-Habitat Afghanistan and UN-Women Afghanistan are pleased to invite young Afghans and teenagers to participate in “My Urban Vision Art Competition.” This competition – which is part of global campaign
by UN-Habitat - aims to increase UN-Habitat's engagement with young people, teenagers, girls, and boys, so that we can work together for creating an urban environment that is inclusive, safe and healthy for all.
The competition is for those who live in small or in bigger urban areas, but also those who live in rural areas and we will be looking forward to receiving your drawings, sketches or other pieces of art.
Participants are welcomed to join the competition by creating a drawing, painting, or design of their imaginary city—the city they would like to live in.
Who Can Participate?
We will have two age groups (categories) for this competition:
- Girls and boys below 12 years old
- Girls and boys between 12-18
- And those over 18 years
What’s happens then?
Following a comprehensive review by our selection committee, UN-Habitat Afghanistan and UN-Women Afghanistan will nominate the top 9 submissions for awards and the top 30 arts will be featured in My Urban Vision dedicated website.
Also, the top three candidates of each age group will be invited to share their vision and ideas in a discussion with our team and partners, if they would like.
