UzA is organizing the annual international competition “Wiki Loves Monuments” in collaboration with the Wikimedia Community of Uzbekistan and the Russian Wikigid community participants, with the support of the Wikimedia Foundation and the Ministry of Natural Resources of Uzbekistan. The contest is open to participants from more than 40 countries, including Uzbekistan. It is intended to draw attention to the architectural and cultural heritage monuments, as well as to promote tourism in the participating nations.
This year, the jury will select up to 15 photos in two categories: landscapes and macro, with up to 10 shots each. The first edition of the event was held in 2010.
