The Earth Visual Odyssey photo contest, organized by the Global Geopark Network (GGN), is a tribute to the profound bond between humans and Earth’s geological wonders. It’s not just about the landscapes, rocks, fossils, and minerals that grace the 213 UNESCO Geoparks, but about the human stories they tell. This contest invites you to capture the intimate dance between people and geology. It’s about the silent whispers of the rocks, the tales fossils tell, and the memories etched in the landscapes. It’s about how these elements shape our lives, our cultures, and our identities.

Your photograph is a chapter in Earth’s grand narrative, a testament to our shared journey with nature. It’s a celebration of our collective curiosity, our thirst for understanding, and our commitment to preserving our precious home. So, let’s honor these geological marvels and our shared heritage. Every snapshot tells a story, every perspective adds depth, and together, we can inspire change.

This contest is not just a journey through space, but a journey of the heart, a celebration of our shared bonds with Earth’s silent narrators of the heart, a celebration of our shared bonds with Earth’s silent narrators.
