The theme Climate and Weather calls for the submission of visual representations of climate and/or weather. According to WHO, climate factors affects the social and environmental determinants of health – clean air, safe drinking water, sufficient food and secure shelter. This year's theme celebrates the prevailing climates and day-to-day weather conditions of various locations on the African continent.

• In what ways have people adapted to the climates in the area where you live?
• What weather conditions do you associate with your lieu or habitat or country?
• Have you observed any recent drastic changes in the climate or weather conditions of your location or another african location you visit often?
