  3. The Nature Conservancy 2017 Nature Writing Prize

The Nature Conservancy 2017 Nature Writing Prize

Closing Date: 27 January 2017
Entry Fee: Yes
Prizes Offered: No
More Information: www.natureaustralia.org.au/nwp

$5,000 will be awarded to the author of an essay between 3,000 and 5,000 words in the genre of ‘Writing of Place’ and the winning entry will be published in Griffith Review online as a multimedia essay.

The competition’s judges are award-winning journalist, author and editor Jo Chandler and novelist and critic James Bradley. They will award the prize to a writer whose entry is judged to be of the highest literary merit and which best explores his or her relationship and interaction with some aspect of the Australian landscape.

The Nature Conservancy Australia Nature Writing Prize was created to promote and celebrate the art of nature writing in Australia as well as to encourage a greater appreciation of Australia’s magnificent landscapes. The prize has been made possible thanks to the generous support of the McLean Foundation.
