Dear WLM community, if you were looking for a chance to organise a Wiki Loves Earth competition, here is your opportunity!

*When?

1st of May — 31st of July. We have a flexible approach regarding local dates, and local organizers decide when exactly to hold their contest within the international timeframe.

How can you join the contest this year as an organizer?

*Gather a team of volunteers with clear roles and timelines.

*Define eligible natural sites in your country (must be officially protected).

*Prepare a landing page for the local contest.

*Put your country in the participants’ list: https://w.wiki/Cwd9

*Create a promotion plan for the contest on social networks.

*Gather a jury team to evaluate the photos (select top-15 local winners for an international contest).

*Award your winners.

We also continue to raise awareness about environmental problems — follow the special category "Human Rights and Environment", which is held for the 5th time — https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Earth_2025/Human_Right...

Document the wide world of protected sites not only with images, but with videos. For the second time, we opened a special category called "Video". Find the details on the page — https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Earth_2025/Video_nomin...
