Calling for Submissions: UN4U Video Contest,
Deadline: 30 September 2016.
Calling for Submissions: UN4U Video Contest -- Why are the Sustainable Development Goals important for the Asia-Pacific region?
This year, UN Day on 24 October will be celebrated across Asia and the Pacific with a video contest highlighting the ways in which people in the region are working towards implementing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), based on seven key themes. The themes are: Education 2030, Sustainable societies, Resource efficient growth, Poverty eradication & inclusion, Disaster risk reduction, Gender equality and Better data.
The UN invites people over 18 years of age from any country in the Asia-Pacific region to submit 20-second videos in English on their favorite SDG theme. When making the videos, contestants are encouraged to showcase their visions about why education, sustainable societies, resource efficient growth, poverty reduction, disaster risk reduction, gender equality and/or better data are important to the future of the region.
Contestants should be creative! They can express themselves through song, dance or sketches, or simply tell us why their favorite theme is important, in front of unique locations or landmarks in their respective countries.
A montage of submissions, as selected by the judging panel, will be screened at UN Day events throughout the region. Winning entries in the ‘Judges Favorite’ and ‘Most Liked’ categories will be shared on social media channels and awarded prizes of up to USD$350.
Video submissions for this contest should be uploaded to YouTube with the hashtags #UN4U and #AsiaPacific by 30 September 2016. Further details and the terms and conditions of the competition are available on:http://www.unescap.org/un-video-contest-2016.
