Applications are invited for the Seeds in Space Youth Comic Book Competition 2023 by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO).
About the Competition
The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) have launched a comic book competition inviting 14 to 18-year-olds to submit artwork that tells the story of the ‘seeds in space’.
This competition is open to youth around the world, inviting them to create a paper or digital illustration to portray one of the six main steps of the seeds’ journey to the International Space Station.
Six steps will be portrayed in the comic and participants may submit drawings for as many of the steps as they wish:
- Preparation of seeds for space.
- Launch into space and docking at the International Space Station.
- Exposure to cosmic radiation, microgravity, and extreme temperatures in space.
- Splashdown and return to Joint FAO/IAEA Centre laboratories.
- Analysis and growth in Joint FAO/IAEA Centre laboratories.
- The results: Do cosmic radiation and space conditions have a uniquely valuable effect on the seeds?
Prizes
The IAEA seeds in space comic book will be created based on the winning design. On the cover, it will say “inspired by” with the name of the winner!
The winner and a select number of finalists will receive IAEA-branded gifts, and an award certificate and have their designs published on the IAEA website.
