The United Nations has designated 2001-2010 as the "International Decade for a Culture of Peace and Non-Violence for the Children of the World." Not only should young people benefit from this global movement, but they should be empowered to play a leading role in the creation of a culture of peace. The theme of this year's International Essay Contest is "The role of media and information and communication
technologies in building a peaceful world." Young people from around the world are invited to submit their creative ideas on this theme.
* This theme was a central topic discussed at the UNESCO Euro-Mediterranean Youth Forum held in November 2006. Entries must be received by June 30, 2007.
