Share your ideas and be heard! United Nations Academic Impact and ELS Inc. launched the 3rd annual “Many Languages, One World” essay contest.
College and university students are invited to write an essay on a UN-related theme in an official UN language other than their mother tongue or primary language of instruction.
The goal of the contest is to raise awareness among students about the work of the UN, but more importantly to promote multilingualism as an integral part of global citizenship and peaceful coexistence.
Sixty winners, ten for each official UN language, will be invited to spend a week in New York at an all expenses paid Global Youth Forum, culminating with an event in the UN General Assembly.
Deadline: Thursday, 31 March 2016 AT 11:59 PM EST.
