The Asian Development Bank (ADB) Institute has made a call for submissions for the 2012 Developing Asia Journalism Awards (DAJA) competition. DAJA 2012 will focus on a critical question facing Asia and the Pacific: “Green Growth – or Growth versus Green?” Journalists from the developing countries of the Asia and the Pacific can submit articles.
DAJA 2012 will highlight the opportunities, challenges, and solutions being uncovered as Asia and the Pacific seek a path to sustainable growth. Journalists are invited to submit published articles that explore the interaction between populations and the environment across the region.
- Can economies maintain rapid growth without damaging the environment?
- How are the development decisions and actions of communities, cities, and countries affecting the environment?
- What are individuals, community leaders, business people, politicians, the judiciary, governments and others doing to improve the balance between man and nature?
- How will the promotion of Green Growth impact efforts to alleviate poverty?
Possible topic areas include issues such as climate change (droughts, flooding, sea-level rise, etc.); energy use/efficiency; renewable energy; water, waste, and forest management; sustainable transport; pollution; urban development; and others.
The deadline for submission of articles to DAJA 2012 is 31 August 2012. For more information, visit this link.
