Empowering Women, Empowering Humanity: Picture It!

Beijing +20 Picture it Competition!

Can you picture what it would be like to fully achieve gender equality in Tanzania? Can you
picture a world where men and women, girls and boys have the same access to opportunities
free from discrimination and where their human rights are fully respected?
On the occasion of twenty years since the landmark Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action
you are invited to share your vision or statement on gender equality, womens rights and
womens empowerment in Tanzania.
Take a photograph, draw or paint a picture that is somehow related to gender equality,
womens rights and/or womens empowerment in Tanzania, and the Beijing Platform for
Action.
Your artwork/picture will be displayed during a special meeting of development partners and
UN representatives who will choose the winners. The winning artwork will be awarded a
camera. The runner up will receive the opportunity to spend a day at UN Women. All
participants will receive a certificate signed by the United Nations Resident Coordinator.
This competition is open only to members of UN Clubs, YUNA or UNA in the United Republic of
