How the competition works
The Centre encourages learners to submit works that deal with issues that are personal to them and to look critically at the rights that have had a direct impact on their lives.
Up to three entries are permitted per author, across categories. Each entry must be submitted on a separate electronic entry form. However, where more than one entry is submitted, only one entry will be selected and published.
