We extended the deadline once, but it won’t happen again. U.S. high school students have until March 31 to submit their video entry in our Speech Up! video contest.
The contest is open to all students in grades 9-12 in public, private, and home schools within the United States. Students create a video speech addressing this year’s theme: “The UN’s Sustainable Development Goal 4.1 states: “By 2030, ensure that all girls and boys complete free, equitable and quality primary and secondary education leading to relevant and effective learning outcomes.” What are the three most critical changes to the status quo you would propose to help achieve that goal in low-income countries like Mali?”
First prize is $1,000! Videos must be 4 minutes or less. Please review the official rules and grading rubric for more direction. Find those rules, more information, and a form for submitting your video on our Speech Up! page.
