UN's International Painting Contest for Children with Theme of "Seas and Oceans"

"Through the International Painting Contest for Children, we are eager to see the visions, aspirations and creativity of children. They are the future and can be inspirational teachers to each other and adults. Indeed, many parents tell me that it is through the actions of children, often through community, school projects and competitions like the painting contest, that they have come to understand environmental issues more deeply." - excerpt from Klaus Toepfer, United Nation Environment Programme's Executive Director, at the recent announcement of the International Painting Contest for Children that has the theme of "Seas and Oceans."
