Video competition on multilingualism in Cyprus gives young people the opportunity to visit Brussels this December!
The Directorate-General for Translation of the European Commission and the Representation of the European Commission in Cyprus are running a short video competition called ‘Cyprus Speaks’ on multilingualism in Cyprus.
Video entries, which can be shot on mobile phones or cameras, can creatively capture the everyday multilingual and multicultural reality of Cyprus. A simple walk in the town centre, by the sea, or to a coffee shop reveals the true culture of Cyprus, which is multicultural and diverse and can be a great source of inspiration for making a short video.
Winners will take part in a 4-day visit to Belgium under the auspices of the EC, with transportation and accommodation paid for!
The competition is open to all European citizens aged 18-35 living in Cyprus.

Deadline: 15th November 2015.
Background
The competition is being held on the occasion of the European Day of Languages. Its aim is to raise awareness of the wide variety of languages in Europe, promote cultural and linguistic diversity and encourage people of all ages to learn languages.
