Hi!
Thanks for the results. Can you share the list of 8(?) countries that couldn't submit winners for the international round?
And it seems the site post with winners should be fixed. Images are not optimized.

Hi Anna,
based on the publicly available submitted winners https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Earth_2023/Winners and the public list of participating countries https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Earth_2023/Participati... (the difference is probably an indicator but not entirely the same as the set of countries that did not submit winners): Central African Republic (0 uploads), Chad (0), Democratic Republic of Congo (218), Ivory Coast (313), Gabon (0), Guinea (7), Haiti (12), Mali (4), Rwanda (38), Senegal (1696), Togo (68).
Some of these countries may have submitted privately, but it looks like most of these countries are based in Africa. If the number of uploads is very low, I can imagine a scenario where there are no uploads of a quality that the national jury/organizers feel it justified to send them to the international finale.
I would love to understand also a bit better what was the cause that some countries were unable to submit winners, and perhaps if there are ways that the international community can help these organizers next time.
Best, Lodewijk

I am very happy and glad that Ghana secured the 1st position in the special Nominations category - Human right and environment.
