21 March is the International Day of Forests and this year's theme is "Forest restoration: a path to recovery and well-being".  To help mark the day we're asking you to share a photo of a tree that supports your well-being in the International Day of Forests 2021 photo contest.



Healthy trees and forests mean healthy people. Forests provide health benefits for everyone on the planet, from fresh air, nutritious foods and ingredients for medicine to clean water and space for recreation. How does your tree help you?

Entries will be judged in three categories:

  *   Children from 6 to 14 years old
