Photographers and photojournalists have until March 1 to submit their photos to a contest in Medellín, Colombia, that will focus on labor and the environment.

The competition aims to highlight labor and social conditions in Latin America from the perspective of photographers, according to the organizer, Escuela Nacional Sindical (ENS).

Works may be submitted in four categories: women workers, children workers, men workers, and migrant workers. The winner of each category will receive a cash prize of US$1,300.

Among the requirements: photos must be digital and sent via e-mail as a JPG file; and each photo must include a title and a 100-word description. The widest side of the image must measure 800 pixels.
