My mission is to grow the Flipboard User Group. I try to find ways to keep our members motivated and to celebrate their great curation efforts. I also want to offer our Flipboard Users the exposure they deserve.

Since Earth Day is upon us, I wanted to offer a contest to select the best magazine to support the environment.

So we came up with an Earth Day contest. We created the hashtag #FlipboardEarthDay to promote and share in the group and on the fediverse.

I enlisted great judges to help me with the selection process. They are experienced and inspiring curators in their own right:

Zuzana Paar

Salvo Micciché

Robyn Saves

Our criteria was:

  1. General magazine topic
  2. Cover
  3. Magazine mission

When we posted the call for entries on our Group page, we loved all the entries. Each contestant showed amazing creativity. Every magazine offered informative ways to conserve our planet.

We had submissions from food recycling and positive conservation to African wildlife.

Needless to mention it was very difficult to choose a winner.

After much deliberation, we selected these two beautiful magazines.

The first place went to the very talented The Queen Zone for their inspiring storyboard celebrating the groundbreaking work of women conservationists.

The second place went to an equally deserving curator Green Child Magazine for its beautiful celebration of children learning about the environment.

An honorable mention went to Foodservice | David for their storyboard celebrating special needs and the environment.

Congratulations all on your well-deserved victories. Your passion, perseverance, and unwavering commitment to conservation are an inspiration to us all.

Happy flipping!
