European Union-The Hindu Centre Essay Competition
Providing a platform for people to 'Voice Out' their concerns and come out with possible solutions, the European Union Delegation to India, in collaboration with The Hindu Centre for Politics and Public Policy, has announced the launch of an essay competition on climate change in India. The competition is open to undergraduate (Bachelor's) and graduate (Master's only) students who hold Indian passports and are residing in India. Essays in English not exceeding 1,500 words should be sent in to the designated email addresses before August 16, 2015. Authors of the top three essays will be taken on a four-day study tour of Europe.
The essay competition will target undergraduates (Bachelor's) and graduates (Master's only) and will elicit creative but practical suggestions from the youth of a country well-known as much for big ideas as for low-cost innovation, or jugaad, in informal parlance. Essays (1,500 words in English) should be submitted before August 16, 2015, on one of the following three topics:
• Climate Change in India: Challenges and Solutions
• Making India's Growth Sustainable
• Clean Development in India: the Way Forward for Towns and Cities
This initiative is being organised jointly by the European Union and The Hindu Centre for Politics and Public Policy - two organisations committed to global understanding and India's future. After an evaluation process involving experts, the results will be announced in October, following which three winners will be invited for a short study tour to Europe.
