In support of the United Nations ActNow campaign, one of the world\u2019s leading digital awards platforms is inviting individuals and organizations across the globe to share their best videos and photos showcasing projects, ideas and actions to tackle the climate crisis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Climate Awards<\/a> by Agora aim to inspire the world and its leaders to unite in the fight for a better future for our planet. \u201cIn an indirect yet powerful way, we, the people, are showing our leaders and governments how to collaboratively create a better world,\u201d says Octavi Royo, founder and CEO of Agora.<\/p>\n\n\n\n According to Royo, the best artistic creations are a powerful tool to generate social change. \u201cWe all know of songs that have transformed societies, we remember images that have changed the world, and have watched movies that have had a lifelong impact on us,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWe invite people to show us their climate action and inspire others. Because, when we pull together, we have much more power to influence change,\u201d says Nanette Braun, director of campaigns at the United Nations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Submit your photos and videos through the Agora mobile app<\/a> in accordance with the contest rules and guidelines, through 4 November 2023.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The Climate Awards will be given in two categories: a #PlanetEarth Photography Award which celebrates the breathtaking beauty of our planet, and a #ClimateSolutions Video Award, showcasing climate projects by organizations and individuals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In each category, a people\u2019s award will be based on popular votes on the app, and a jury award will be selected by a panel of experts in the fields of the arts and climate, including Ingmar Rentzhog (We Don\u2019t Have Time), Zo\u00eb Red (Creatives For Climate), and Lucy Almond (Nature4Climate).
