The LED office in La Paz, Bolivia, held a photo competition for the second time in 2022. Once again, the best pictures of the year from the local partner organizations were chosen. The photos submitted had to relate to the thematic focus areas of the LED: Food Security and Agroecology, Intercultural Bilingual Education, Technical Education and Environment. The competition comprised two categories: Project staff took part in the first category, while students and “direct beneficiaries” of the projects (young people and adults) could also take part in the second category.
The award-winning pictures showed, among other things, the cultivation of plants, sustainable education and learning as well as tradition and everyday life in the Andes. The winning photo in category 1 by Mirian Karen Ortiz Guillén portrays a boy helping his aunt, a plant grower, to tend the family garden. In category 2, the prize was awarded to Alexander Rafael Veliz Pinto’s picture, which presents an interesting view of project workers harvesting vegetables. The competition jury consisted of external experts and LED employees.
