Entries to Coventry’s International Young People’s Peace Essay Competition close on 31 October.

Young people aged 15 to 24 can gain a certificate of participation, stand a chance to win a cash prize and can add an entry in their CV.

This competition it is a tool for exploring young peoples’ opinions on peace agendas and for harnessing their enthusiasm for contributing to the improvement of peace in the world.

The collection of written essays could serve as a resource for various sectors, for example a source of ideas for leaders, items for analysis by social scientists and law scholars, a motivation for use by teachers to encourage their students to write essays and a revelation for politicians about the issues that preoccupy the minds of young people.
