Competition: Share your vision for the world after coronavirus

The COVID-19 pandemic raises many questions about how societies are organised, and the ways in which public health challenges can be tackled. As governments struggle to protect lives and keep our economies afloat, ambitious ideas that once seemed improbable have suddenly become surprisingly plausible.

Now that everyone is thinking about what our post-lockdown future might look like, openDemocracy and UCL have launched a competition to find the best ideas for what should come next.

Competition details

To enter the competition you should submit an entry that describes your vision for the world after coronavirus as either a written article, short video or an image/photograph.

Judges will be looking for ambitious ideas about how governments, citizens, scientists, artists – or anyone else you think has a role to play – can shape a different and better future.

Two winners will be selected from the entries in all three categories; a grand prize winner selected by the judges and a People’s Choice winner selected by public vote.

The grand prize includes £200 in book vouchers and a bespoke training opportunity that can take the form of a mini-fellowship, work experience, or placement, in line with the winner’s area of interest.

The People’s Choice winner will receive £100 book vouchers and runners-up will receive £50 book vouchers.

All winners and runners-up will receive a personal mentoring and career advice session with one of the expert judges, and entries will be published on openDemocracy’s website.

The deadline for entries is 10 July, and the winners will be announced on 2 August.
