CIPE 2010 Youth Essay Contest 2010

The Centre for International Private Enterprise (or CIPE) has recently released the categories for its annual Youth Essay Contest. The categories are:

1. Democracy that delivers
2. Entrepreneurship and society
3. Women and participation

The competition is aimed at students and young professionals aged between 18 and 30. All entries should be between 2000 and 3000 words in length, and should be submitted online via the submission page on their website by the 18th June, 2010. CIPE will publish winning essays, and first, second and third place authors in each category will receive an honorarium of $1000. You can see more detailed essay guidelines (including brief discussions and suggested questions for each topic) and judging criteria here. All the best to those entering!

CIPE aims to strengthen democracy around the world through private enterprise and market-orientated reform. As you might already know, the CIPE Development blog features on our 'Interesting Blogs' widget on the right hand side of our pages, where you can always find the latest updates on their work.
