The 2025 Competition seeks to inspire young people and key partners (educators, artists, scientists and others) to work together to create legacy arts and culture projects for the benefit of local, national and international communities and to reflect the importance of protecting and improving the biodiversity of seeds against the impact of climate change.
This year, young people and their partners are asked to create Seeds of Hope art works or stories in partnership with others, in response to the brief "Imagine you are a seed"
The competition seeks to encourage and inspire young people and their partners to use a range of artistic expressions to create impactful arts and culture legacy projects for the benefit of others. Artwork examples could include:
- Art works, which can be a gallery exhibition or community art work for long-term display in a prominent outdoor space / public indoor area, and/or a touring exhibition.
- Illustrated poems / short stories as the focus of presentation for local poetry / story festivals or widely circulated through a variety of print media, such as books / flip books, posters, leaflets or other graphic formats.
- Digital illustrations using photography / film / animation circulated through social and other public media formats or exhibitions.
- Performance and / or installation art, such as a young people’s play / opera / musical theatre / dance / installation art / sculpture park.
