CHILDLINE Se Dosti-Participation

Childline seeks to embark upon a new relationship with the youth in a manner that is both innovative and impelling. We have created a competition for the BMM students which will not only allow for creative outlet but also sensitize students and create awareness towards child rights and protection

Documentary film making competition

Each film can be created by a team of any number of students.There are two categories under which films can be submitted:

1) 3 minute film2) 30 second film

• The entries will be judged by renowned filmmakers on the basis of concept, execution and the apt use of the Childline 1098 number, thus encouraging the students to think social and be creative.

* Topics, terms and conditions for the same will be shared with the students by the 15th of October, 2010.

The mentioned suggestions will need detailed proposals, processes and logistics for execution. Since all of the above would require reasonable amount of time to put together, we shall be grateful for an early confirmation of participation from you to make sure we carry out the activities in the most systematic and planned manner.

There may be many more activities that your students may come up with and we shall be more than happy to meet with them at convenient time and place to discuss their suggestions and preferences.
