Do what?
Imagine yourself before the United Nations General Assembly in front of 192 Heads of State. The President of the assembly introduces you to loud applause. The hall goes quiet as they await your words…

Basically, chose one of the 8 set goals and create the speech you imagine you would give to the world leaders -- and be creative about it!

For what?
To each category, the first prize is a netbook; second prize is an e-reader; third prize is an MP3 player.

By when?
The deadline is 21 March 2010, so hurry up and get started! Winners will be announced by May 2010. Entries must be submitted online HERE.

What ARE the MDGs?
