Young journalists, photographers and videographers are invited to compete for eight prizes in the “Europe is More Than You Think” Award 2009, organised jointly by the Council of Europe and the European Youth Press.
The contest wants you to look beyond the headlines which dominate the common understanding of Europe – big government, international finance and trade agreements – and capture the Europe which, all too often, goes unnoticed.
The award is open to residents of Council of Europe member states, with the most important rule being that entrants must be aged between 18 and 27. The closing date for submissions is 6 December 2009. Entrants can submit their work in either French or English.
