Contest: ‘‘a wish for the planet’’
Are you between the ages of 5 and 18? We propose that you take your inspiration from The Little Prince in answering the following question:
‘‘Are the values of The Little Prince still universal values today?”
Let your inspiration and creativity guide you in bringing your dreams to life. Send your story or drawing to education-outreach@un.org by 5 June 2014, World Environment Day. Awards will be announced at the United Nations Headquarters in September, 2014 as part of the International Day of Peace commemoration.
The contest will begin on 20 March 2014, the International Day of Francophonie, and is open to participants between the ages of 5 and 18. Three awards will be given for each age category (5-8, 9-12, 13-15, and 16-18) and the winning submissions will be posted on a United Nations website. We ask that you please include your first name, last name, date of birth, and e-mail address. All drawings must be digitized and text submissions, either in English or French, must not exceed 500 words. Participants retain ownership rights for their drawings or text, but by participating in the contest, they agree to give the United Nations the exclusive, irrevocable right to use the contents of their submission, fully or partially, without compensation. Winners must provide proof of their date of birth.
