Kon-Tiki Challenge 2009

For you between 12 - 18 years
Prizes up to NOK 20.000

Challenge 2009 is a competition for young people aged 12-18 years old.
The competition aims to encourage the interest of the individual entrants and wider interest through the presentation of their entries.

This year's challenge is about local environmental initiatives.

Make a documentary, max. 5 minutes long, about young people in your neighbourhood who have done something good for the environment in the last year. This could be, for example, an anti-littering campaign, protesting about environmental pollution, preventive environmental measures such as cycling instead of driving a moped, or an invention that is good for the environment.

The jury is looking for creativity and innovative activities, in both the environmental initiative being filmed and in the documentary itself.

Entries may be used in Gyldendal's educational programmes and the Kon-Tiki Museum's own educational activities. The entries can allso be used at The Kon-Tiki Museum homepage and for Youtube without any permission from the producer of the film.

The jury will reward both parts of the winning entry – the documentary and the environmental initiative itself – with NOK 10,000 each. You can of course take part on both sides of the camera!

Duration:

25 May 2008 – 25 May 2009

Deadline for entries: 1 May 2009

Entries must be produced and submitted on a DVD together with a short note about the entrants and what the entry is about.
