AFU Photo Competition Launch

Welcome to DCU’s Age-Friendly University Amateur Photo Competition!

We are organizing a photo competition to celebrate the Positive Ageing Week in Ireland. We are open to people of all ages and abilities and we think that this is the perfect opportunity for the members of your association! We are looking to find rare gems of local talent from our communities to showcase intergenerational engagement throughout Ireland!

The Photo Competition theme is Positive Ageing, which is free to each photographer to decide how they want to showcase positive ageing. This can be groups meeting in cafes, group outings, coffee mornings, sports activities, etc., are welcome. How would you interpret positive ageing and how would you wish to age gracefully?

It would be even better if pictures could show older and younger people mixing. We want to see your photo showcasing ageing in a positive way.

There will be prize cash for the first, second and third places as well as a get together for people wishing to attend. 

You will also have the opportunity to feature in a dedicated photo gallery on our website /agefriendly/ 



So dust off your camera or whisk out your mobile and get snapping!
