UNAOC, IOM invite youths to produce creative videos

The United Nations Alliance of Civilizations (UNAOC) and the International Organisation for Migration (IOM) have again invited the worlds youth to submit original and creative videos focusing on PLURAL+ themes: migration, diversity and social inclusion.

Recognising youth as powerful agents of social change in a world often characterised by intolerance, and cultural and religious divisions, PLURAL+ invites youth to address key challenges related to migrant integration, inclusiveness, identity, diversity, human rights and social cohesiveness, both at local and global levels, said UNAOC and IOM in a joint statement.

Young people up to 25 years old are invited to submit short videos of a maximum five-minutes in length.

A prestigious international jury will select three winners in the age categories of 9-12, 13-17, and 18-25.

The winners will be invited to New York, with all travel expenses paid, to present their work at the PLURAL + 2013 Awards Ceremony at the Paley Center for Media in December, this year.

PLURAL+ 2013 deadline for video submission is June 30.
