Hi all,
A while ago I wrote to you about our social media campaign that we run throughout the year with hashtag #MonumentaStories. In this campaign we highlight national winners and ask the photographer to share with us a story about the photo (the setting, the place, the mood, anything interesting). To ensure diversity in this campaign, I've personally reached out to winners from many countries. So far, we've published 30 stories from 30 different countries but despite all my efforts some countries are still missing. It might be due to language barrier but in any case, I want to ask local organizers for their help in highlighting photos from their own countries.
A brief and non-comprehensive list of missing countries: Germany, Thailand, Taiwan, Croatia, Venezuela, Brazil, UK, Palestine, Austria, Belgium, Malaysia, Netherlands, Georgia, Armenia.
I'm also thinking of starting a second round and include countries that are already covered for a second time. So even if your country is represented I'd appreciate if you help me get another story. It should be easier for local organizers to reach out to winners. Note that the photo doesn't have to be from this year.
If you can help please reach out to the winners, get a story from them and send it to me or put them in touch with me so I can continue the conversation with them.
Thanks, Mohammad
