The wide and beautiful natural heritage can be showcased, and Wikipedia articles can be illustrated not only with images but also with videos. In this special nomination, we recognize videos depicting natural monuments worldwide.

If you are a local organizer, you can decide whether to promote and choose the local winning videos for this nomination. However, take your time to think!

Love our Earth, and hurry up to participate in the contest!

In 2024, the Wiki Loves Earth international photo contest, for the fourth time, supports the initiative WikiForHumanRights, which partners with the Wikimedia Foundation (WMF) and the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR).

Its goal is to raise awareness of nature protection and human impacts on nature. When we protect the environment, we also protect our fundamental human rights — rights to water, life, food, housing, and other fundamental rights that rely on a clean, healthy environment.

As in the previous year, we accept photos from the countries where the main contest is going and worldwide!
