Building on the success of the 2010 competition on the Millennium Development Goals, WeCanEndPoverty, UNRIC has launched a new ad competition, this time focusing on gender equality. It is calling for an end to all forms of violence against women and girls.

The competition opens for submissions on 8 March 2011, International Women’s Day, and ends at midnight (CET) 31 May 2011. The winners will be announced on 25 November 2011– the International Day to Eliminate Violence Against Women.  The competition is open to all citizens and residents in Europe and the task is to create an ad that says NO to violence against women and girls, the ad must include the No to Violence Against Women logo.

All submissions must be made through the competition website.

On the website you will also find all the rules and conditions, information about the prizes, the jury and the selection process.
