Why would I like to meet my neighbors from the Falkland Islands?”

This Sunday, October 2nd, ends the deadline to participate in the regional competition sponsored by the Falkland Islands government and the UK embassies in Uruguay, Brazil and Chile addressing the issue, “Why would I like to meet my neighbors from the Falkland Islands?” The competition is open to university students from the three countries and the prize is a weeklong trip to the Falkland Islands with all expenses paid.

To participate, contestants should send a one minute video answering the question: “Why would I like to meet my neighbors from the Falkland Islands?” in English before October 2 to concursofalkland@gmail.com

Winners (one per country) will be selected by members of the British Embassies in Uruguay, Brazil and Chile. The three of them will travel together and will be staying with a local family, to experience firsthand the life in the Falkland Islands.

The contest is meant to promote the cultural exchange between the Falklands and the mentioned countries, and to spread the knowledge about the Falkland Island and its people. The ideal winner should be active in social media and willing to share his/her experience about the Falkland Islands through these channels

Judging by the extremly low and inbreed international participation any Engrish Pirate internet Initiative on Malvinas has..., it will be interesting to check the family background of the coming winner of this “competition”

Just check the example below...:
Heavily publicized in the Anglo Murdochite press..., this Kelperette Internet Initiativet only got whopping 72 signatures, mostly from Faith's own Kelper family...
