GOALS OF THE CONTEST

The primary goal of the Vision Contest is to harness new intelligent approaches of large numbers of the youth community to create innovations and provide answers to challenges of what humanity needs now or in the future. By asking youth to make determinations as concerned citizens and think constructively about change, we believe it may be possible to create better solutions than would have been developed otherwise.

The goals of this contest are not to advocate any particular point of view or multimedia preference. Instead, we hope to provide a neutral forum where the best ideas and information can be shared.
