A global photo project is taking place on May 15 this year, that aims to be the largest collaborative documentation of humankind ever undertaken. Expressions of Humankind is the initiator of the project and they are reaching out to professional and amateur photographers worldwide to participate.
The A Day in the World project is a unique, inclusive, single day photographic project involving professional, semi-professional and amateur photographers around the World.
The project is supported by an Advisory Council with prominent leaders from different parts of the world, for example president Mary Robinson, Nobel Laureate Martti Ahtisaari, super entrepreneur Richard Branson and Archbishop Desmond Tutu.
Please sign up for more information on http://www.aday.org/
When uploading the pictures, there is a possibility to put a team tag on your pictures, which means that it is easy to search for pictures taken by 365ers.
I suggest 365project as the team tag.
There is also a small inspiration film on Youtube:

And if you're still not convinced, this is from the website...
Why should I join?
Because you love photography. Because you have something to say. Because your life matters. Because the idea of doing something together worldwide is thrilling. Because you like the thought of saving a little something of yourself for generations to come. Because your take on daily life is part of a much bigger picture.
