PLURAL+ Video Festival Calls on Youth to Submit Their Videos. Deadline
extended to 10 October 2009!
Youth from around the world (9 to 25 years old) are invited to
participate in the PLURAL+ Video Festival on the themes of migration,
diversity, and identity. The festival is a joint initiative of the
United Nations Alliance of Civilizations (UNAoC) and the International
Organization for Migration (IOM), in partnership with many important
international agencies. The deadline for submission of short videos is
30 September 2009. Three young winners will be flown to New York City to
attend awards ceremonies on 18 December 2009, coinciding with
International Migrants Day. The winning videos will be awarded exciting
prizes and receive professional opportunities in addition to
international exposure through film festivals, conferences, broadcast,
satellite, and internet.
All details about the PLURAL + Video Festival, including the entry form
and Rules and Regulations, can be found at www.unaoc.org/pluralplus

E-consultation on Migration and Development
The Ghana-based organization Young People We Care (YPWC), with support
from TakingITGlobal and UNICEF Voices of Youth, is organizing an
E-Consultation in preparation for the 3rd Global Forum on Migration and
Development (GFMD) taking place in Greece in November 2009. The 4-week
E-Consultation from Sunday, 27 September to Saturday, 17 October 2009
will collect youth responses to a variety of migration-related
questions. It seeks to substantively include young people in migration
debates as well as to influence migration polices that work in the
interest of young migrants. The GFMD has become one of the principal
international spaces in which governments discuss migration and
development policy, an area that crucially affects opportunities for
young people.
Your perspectives, experiences and contributions to the project are
welcome. For more information visit:
