Contest: Education a Universal Right
Monday April 12th, 2010In the world, there are 72 million children without any formal education or schooling. Their capacity to learn, thirst for knowledge, and desire to build a future for themselves are the same as those of the children that go to school daily.
However, war, poverty, inequality between sexes, and the need to simply survive ensure that not everyone has the same opportunities. The initiative of Blipoint’s Gallery contest, together with the Global Humanitaria NGO, is to vindicate, through art, access to Obligatory Universal Education, one of the objectives of the Millennium foreseen for 2015.
An exhibition will take place featuring the 20 winning images in the NIU space. The takings of the sale will be used for the educational projects of Global Humanitaria.
The exhibition with the 20 winning images will take place from October 21st until November 14th, 2010. In NIU. Espai Artístic Contemporani.
