HOLIDAY IN CROATIA
The competition is over
During the I think… Youth for a greener future! competition, which was announced in September 2019, we asked Hungarian elementary and secondary school students to tell us what they think about environmental protection, and the present and the future of our planet. Thank you for your contributions. We are pleased that so many of you picked up the pen (or the keyboard) and expressed what you think.
Now it’s our turn: we promised to publish your thoughts so that the whole country and the world can come to know what Hungarian young people think.
This site contains the best 25 essays.
Herewith we kindly invite you to join us on the APPLiA Hungary’s Facebook page, where in the course of 2020 we will introduce one of our participants each week and publish their thoughts on a greener future.
During our campaign, we will also honor the most important and most interesting special days. Let’s learn from each other, let’s think and change together in 2020 in order to make our future a little greener, indeed! Let’s live smarter! It’s up to us and and it is up to you!
The panel
From the best twenty five entries, each member of the panel selected the top five entries. This resulted in a total of fourteen entries in the next round. Entries that have been selected by at least two jury members to be among the top five, a total of eight entries, qualified for the final. The top eight entries were ranked by each member of the jury and the final result was the summary of the five lists.
