International Photo Competition
The international photo competitions of the last few years have been a great success. High-quality photographs were added to the IPA international archives and are available to all IPA sections. Exhibitions were produced in many sections throughout the world, and the photos are exhibited at IPA sections and police units. We hope that the Photo Competition 2019 will also produce high-quality entries, with the participation of most of the sections and photographers. I wish all participants success. Adv. Gal Sharon IPA Vice president and Chairperson of the SCC International Police Association ENTRY DEADLINE - 1ST MARCH 2019 |
