Each year the Department of Sociology at the University of Cambridge hosts a photography competition aimed at students in Years 10, 11 and 12.
In this competition, students are invited to enter one photograph and an accompanying paragraph that explains how the photo interprets the theme. The winner will be awarded with £100 for themselves and £100 for their school, and their photo will be featured on our website and social media pages. For updates, join our outreach mailing list.
