Commonwealth Day 2008
February 15th, 2008
Every second Monday in March, we celebrate Commonwealth Day. As a
citizen of the Commonwealth, this is a good time and opportunity to
think about what the Commonwealth means to you. To encourage this
process, two competitions are being organised in the coming months:
(i) A Commonwealth-wide Logo Design Competition is being organised by
the Government of Sri Lanka, for the 2008 Commonwealth Youth Ministers
Meeting to be held in Sri Lanka in April. More information about the
competition is available at:
http://www.thecommonwealth.org
(ii) A National Website Design Competition has been organised by the
NYAA Council, with the support of the British High Commission in
Singapore, to mark Commonwealth Day. More information about the
competition is available in the accompanying attachment.
If you are interested in participating in either/both of the above
competitions, please email Natalie (natalie.morris[ at ]gmail.com).
The Commonwealth, at their meetings, and in their institutional
set-ups, places great importance on youth participation and youth
views, so you can be sure that the following competitions are not ends
in themselves, but are avenues for your much desired input into the
Commonwealth youth process!
