Hello antanana,
It's a pleasure to get in touch with you! From Wikimedia Argentina, in recent years, we didn't organize photo contests specifically for teachers, but we do carry out an activity with images, which may be of your interest.
In the framework of the virtual course “Teaching with Wikipedia”, for teachers of the Province of Río Negro, we proposed as an activity the release of images of their city or town, in order to illustrate Wikipedia articles in Spanish. We carried out this experience four times, with very good results. I share with you the links to the dashboard, so you can check it out.

Hello antanana,
At Wikimedistas de Uruguay we've run two contests that I think suit your description:
1- Click to the school: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Event:Click_a_la_escuela -- We invited people to submit photos of their schools, after uploading the open dataset of all the Uruguayan schools into Wikidata. This happened near a few trainings we were doing with teachers so it was a good opportunity for them to try. We got some quite amazing pictures.
2- Foto.Física: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Event:Foto.F%C3%ADsica_2024 -- In this case, the Society of Physics of Uruguay has been running this contest for quite a while now (I think over 10 years) and this year we co-organized the contest using Wikimedia Commons as the platform. They were a few things that we could have worked better (for example, the category system), but overall it was an interesting experiment.
Happy to talk more about them if you're interested.
