NBP / AWF Benjamin Mkapa African Wildlife Photography Awards & Traveling Exhibition
The Benjamin Mkapa African Wildlife Photography Awards was a wonderful two-year global photographic competition run in alliance with the African Wildlife Foundation to help celebrate their 60 years of conservation leadership and to raise awareness and support for AWF programs protecting the unique wildlife and wild lands of Africa: "Bringing the World to Africa, and Africa to the World."
Photos of Africa should now be entered in the NBP Awards competitions. See the past Mkapa winners:
