Learndesk, the Guardian’s online news service for schools, has teamed up with Amnesty International UK to launch the Young Human Rights Reporter competition.
Children aged between seven and 14 are asked to write under 250 words on a human rights story. This could be from personal experience or their interpretation of a human rights news story.
Prizes include an expenses-paid trip to the Amnesty International UK and Guardian HQs, easi-speak mp3 recorder and microphone, and a specially made Amnesty Media Awards 2010 trophy.
Winners will be announced in the Guardian and will be showcased at the Amnesty Media Awards on 1st June 2010. Entries can only be sent through Learnnewsdesk – so LTS has organised a free login to the site.
For more details about the competition, and how to enter, go to http://www.learnnewsdesk.co.uk, login Amnesty, password Amnesty, and go to competitions link in the Be a reporter section. The closing date for entries is 1st April.
