Interested in reporting on humanitarian issues?

Participate in the ICRC Young Reporter Competition and get an inside look at the ICRC’s humanitarian action, in collaboration with national Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies. The four best entries will win a one-week mission to ICRC delegations in Georgia, Lebanon, Liberia and the Philippines. You will get to interview young people affected by armed conflict or other situations of violence and have a chance to report back to your peers, using your own words and creative talents.

 

With the guidance and coaching of an ICRC communication specialist, selected candidates will produce a news report on their mission—in print or film—to be published and/or shown in a variety of media outlets. The finished products will be presented during a ceremony held in Geneva, Switzerland, around May 8, 2011.
