NOOW5: Call For Solution Based Contributions on “Responsive Sustainability” 2019




NOOW5: Call For Solution Based Contributions on

Deadline: October 31st, 2019

In 2015, a group of young Nigerians who are passionate about the environment came together to jointly promote awareness on environmental issues relating to their cities. They settled to do so in the form of an electronic magazine that will collect, order, and share different articles, stories, narratives, and even pictures from different contributors.

NOOW (Nature On Our Watch) was born and the first issue of the e-magazine was published in December, 2015. NOOW is not a noun, it is a movement.




In 2015, Nature On Our Watch (NOOW) set sail on a journey to position itself as an outfit with regards to environmental news, discourse and updates through insightful pieces and opinion editorials. Her urbanely-led E-magazine is aimed at compiling and raising informed commentary/debate on striking environmental and urban issues; this is to further generate the awareness of places in people, in pursuance of the ‘New Urban Agenda’, and has so far published four (4) issues.

NOOW is accepting contributions for the fifth annual publication themed:

Responsive Sustainability.

In the past years, contributions have brought to the fore fundamental environmental ills and urban issues. With NOOW 5, we seek to move beyond ‘blaming the world, but finding solution.’ It is therefore on that note that we seek to share the best possible ways to respond to environmental threats and improve sustainability. Thus, contributions should be solution based with focus on current problems such as;

  • Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH)
  • Environmental and Energy Security
  • Gender considerations and Mainstreaming
  • Community Involvement in Environmental Sustainability etc.

Also, if you are into any form of environmental activism, we’ll also be happy to share your efforts in our magazine.

How to apply:

  • Entries should be between 600-1000 words (except for poems) and photo entries must be in high quality. Contributors may also submit a 50 word (max) author/photographer/poet profile.
  • Entries should be sent to [email protected] with subject title ‘NOOW Contribution’ and in attached doc. or similar file not as the body of the email, on or before October 31st, 2019.
  • Sources must be duly acknowledged and referenced where necessary.
