Dear students
I am very pleased to inform you about a competition that the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) has launched in the context of its 50th anniversary celebrations, and as part of a commitment to engage with youth around the world.
A video competition has been opened to everyone between the ages of 18 and 25 years old. Its theme is ‘progress’ and what it means to young people today. Participants are invited to submit on YouTube a short video – no longer than 3 minutes – which completes the phrase “Progress is …”. It hope that those at your establishment who decide to take part, will find your subscribed access to OECD iLibrary (www.oecd-ilibrary.org) a useful resource during their preparations.
The prize is a fully-paid trip to Paris, in May 2011, where winning entries will be showcased at the 2011 OECD Forum. You can find out more about the competition on our public website at www.oecd.org/videocontest.
I trust that this initiative will contribute to further strengthening the OECD’s relations with young people and I thank you in anticipation of your support.
Yours sincerely,
Mr. James Kitchen
Marketing Manager
OECD
Public Affairs and Communications Directorate
