which aims to bring together visions of Italy and Australia,
each seen from the other's point of view.
There are two thematic categories in the competition,
which can be freely interpreted:
- Italy through Australian eyes - images of Italy, open to individuals who hold Australian citizenship, an Australian permanent resident visa, or dual Australian-Italian citizenship.
