ICAW 2023 Poster and Video Winners Chosen

The two ICAW 2023 contests ended on Nov. 1. For the poster contest, CREF received over 700 entries from 77 countries. Thank you to everyone who took the time to enter and also to those who voted on their favorite entries.  The winner of the 2023 poster contest is Jun Qi Tan. She is an illustrator and storyteller from Singapore, and she is also a regenerative gardener and composter. The beautiful plant at the heart of the ICAW 2023 poster is the ancient grain amaranth, commonly grown in Southeast Asia, tying into the 2023 theme of For Healthier Soil, Healthier Food…Compost!   

The winner of the video contest, which is open to children ages 10-13, is Magna Iacomella Paz from Argentina. She is 11-years-old and said that she has been composting since she was a little girl. Her dad taught her how and why it is important to compost their food waste.
