UNDP has launched its global storytelling contest, Voices2Paris, to contribute to raising public awareness on the negative impacts of climate change as well as on the opportunities and solutions seen in actions by individuals and governments alike across vulnerable developing countries worldwide.
The contest invites participation from journalists 35 years of age and under from developing countries who are already engaged in public writing and want to contribute towards greater public awareness on climate change. The best stories will be published every day from November 2nd to 29th on UNDP and partners’ sites. The authors of the top two prize winning stories will be invited to attend and cover the COP21 UN climate summit in Paris this December.
