DETAILS OF 2021 INTERNATIONAL LETTER WRITING COMPETION FOR YOUNG PEOPLE By post Department
This year, 2021, the UPU is proud to be running its 50th international letter-writing competition. All of our participating member countries have consistently encouraged youth to develop their literacy skills and to focus on a particular subject. The competition is an excellent means of promoting literacy among youth and contributes to the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
The COVID pandemic has had a major impact on the way we work and live. And it hasn't stopped yet! We continue to be profoundly affected by the virus. How have young people in particular felt about these momentous changes? This year's theme sets out to explore their experiences as we ask them to "write a letter to a family member about your experience with COVID.19."
All member countries are invited to participate by organizing a competition at the national level before sending their top composition to the UPU. Each country's winning letter must be submitted to the International Bureau no later than 5 May 2021.
