Cultural Platform Zakarpattya shares opportunities for creative Ukrainian youth making short videos about pressing social issues
Embracing the transformative power of storytelling, the United Nations Alliance of Civilizations (UNAOC) and the International Organization for Migration (IOM) launch the application period for the 2024 edition of the PLURAL+ Youth Video Festival, inviting global youth up to 25 years of age to submit short videos on pressing social issues.
This year, PLURAL+ will continue to illuminate the enduring themes of migration, diversity, and social inclusion, while also spotlighting two special categories focusing on combatting xenophobia and fostering inclusive climate action.
The creators of the selected videos will be recognized during the award ceremony at the 10th UNAOC Global Forum in Portugal.
PLURAL+ partner organizations will also confer a multitude of recognitions and professional opportunities to outstanding young filmmakers.
Recipients get a chance to present their work during the annual PLURAL+ Ceremony, an exciting event attended by a diverse, global audience (UN staff, media professionals, representatives of civil society organizations, academics, etc.).
PLURAL+ videos gain international exposure, and their young media makers get the opportunity to meet and network with many professionals, peers, and organizations and explore opportunities for further distribution and dissemination of their work.
The deadline to submit videos to the 16th edition of PLURAL+ is Friday, 31 May, at 11:59 EDT (New York time). Submit your work and let the world hear your voice!
