HOME - A photography competition by Faculty of Human Sciences

The Faculty of Human Sciences created, in last month, a photography competition for their students – national and international - named "Home".

The students have to submit a photograph that best conveys their sense of home and a brief paragraph (250 characters) explaining their choice.

‘Home’ is a difficult concept nowadays. Often bound up with political strife, economic struggles of various kinds and, more recently, environmental challenges, the concept seems either to recede into a distant landscape for large numbers of displaced people or become the coterie of a privileged few millions.

The competition is currently awaiting a decision by the jury, composed of several FCH-Católica teachers. Soon the winners will be announced on the FCH website and Facebook page.

The top 20 photographs will be exhibited at the Faculty of Human Sciences during December.
