This year, for the fifth time, Erasmus Student Network Poland is organizing Discover Europe contest - a nationwide photo competition. Every year the competition is more and more popular and the number of universities taking part in it is increasing.

Targets of the contest:

  • to look at the Europe and cultural diversity through the eyes of Polish students studying abroad and through the eyes of foreigners coming as Erasmus students to Poland.

  • notice the beauty of the surrounding world,

  • share the experiences from our journeys

  • improve photographic skills and develop own creativity

  • to discover Europe yet unknown

Discover Europe is another chance to create an intercultural dialogue, which has been strongly supported by Erasmus Student Network between young people for many years

Discover Europe step by step - how to get in?1. First of all you need to fulfill some requirements:

  • you have to be a student (coming from Poland or studying in Poland in student exchange) or a PhD student
  • you have to enter the webpage and sign in to the local stage of the contest

2. Local stage:

On this stage the best photos are selected from winners of local stages by a professional jury. In each category there are 3 pictures chosen. Don't bother if your photo doesn't win recognition of the jury - there is still a chance that internet users will like it!
