Outback International was born from discussions between Berwick Viewfinders Camera club members, during COVID lock down in Melbourne, Australia, back in 2020.
Initially, Berwick Viewfinders Camera Club hosted two National competitions, the first in 2021 and then again 2022 with a plan to move to International competitions in 2024. The Terra Australis competition was held in July 2024
Also, in 2024, an additional small committee was formed to conduct the Outback International competition, the funds raised from this competition are used, in part, to educate a young Nepalese boy through secondary school.
This International competition runs independently from the Terra Australis competition and by a small committee.
We hope over time to be able to grow this event and assist other children to go to school and receive an education and enable them to provide a better life for themselves and their families.
