OPPORTUNITIES: ymex.org World Population Day Media Contest - Spread the Word!

ymex.org World Population Day Media Contest - Spread the Word!
Calling all youth bloggers, video producers, photographers, podcasters, or gamers who want to make a positive impact!: PARTICIPATE IN OUR LATEST MEDIA CONTEST ON www.ymex.org!
A little bit of background
The United Nations has established July 11th as World Population Day. This day is especially important because it brings together so many issues our global community faces in this moment such as poverty, reproductive health, HIV/AIDS, empowerment of women & young people, and sustainable development. Go to http://www.unfpa.org/issues/ to learn more.
What is the contest?
We are accepting all digital media entries (writing, videos, audio, games, or mashups) from ymex.org members that fit the theme, could educate the public or offer solutions on the issues around World Population Day. Entries must be youth-produced and fit into the ymex.org guidelines (found on the FAQ's page under the Community tab). Any ymex.org member can enter - just make sure your media is in English language (or provides obvious English translations). Two prizes will be awarded to media created by members under 18 and one will go to any member 18 or older.
Why would I enter this contest?
Amazon.com gift certificates will be awarded to the top three winners! You will enjoy the fame as you and your media are in the ymex.org spotlight. Best of all you will raise awareness on important issues & make a difference in this world!
How do I enter the contest?
It's easy! All you have to do to enter is submit your media to ymex.org before or by 11:59pm GMT on Friday JULY 11, 2008 and include the tag "wpdcontestentry" on your final submission.
Cast your vote!
If you don't have media that you want to submit to this contest, you can still help us choose the winners by viewing and rating media across the website with the globes rating system as well as commenting on media by answering the question "How did this media affect you?" The winners will be chosen based on comments, ratings, number of views, and the likelihood that the media piece, when shared far and wide, will raise awareness on population issues in a creative way.
