Do you have an idea of how to improve development assistance? Would you like to win an Ipad, plus 1000 Euros to donate to an NGO of your choice AND have your ideas presented to influential policy makers?

If you are a student, then this is your chance!

Student competition
'Inside the Black Box' is a campaign encouraging students from all over the world to get involved in the debate on how to improve the coherence and effectiveness of Official Development Assistance (ODA). Competition entries will be judged by a panel of ODA specialists from leading institutes in the ODA field including UNU-MERIT and partner institutes. 
25 selected entries will be compiled into a United Nations University publication and disseminated among leading politicians and officials connected to the development sector. A great way to make a name for yourself.

Inside the Black Box is officially endorsed by the OECD-Development Assistance Committee Chair Erik Solheim, the Clingendael Institute (Netherlands), German Development Institute/Deutsches Institut für Entwicklungspolitik, Effective Development Group (Australia), Foreign Policy Research Institute (USA), and many more Ministries of Foreign Affairs, Development Banks, and Agencies all over the world.
