In Focus photo project

My colleague Rebecca at Oxfam House has asked me to advertise her photo project aimed at getting 11-14 year olds in Oxfordshire to think about what they'd like to protect from climate change.

The Green Finger project asks children to colour in their index finger in green pen and write on their palm what they want to protect, and then take a photo or video with their palm and Green Finger facing the camera, like this:














Or this:



When children enter In Focus, they join people from all over the world who are telling world leaders and people everywhere to take action and protect the world from climate change, which affects poorest people the worst.

The deadline for entries by Monday 23 March. The best entries will win great prizes! Up for grabs are a Sony Cybershot T77 camera, a Flip Video Mino and digital photo frames. So if you have kids in this age range, or have links with a local school, do let them know about it.
