TSL 2016 International Schools Essay Competition and Debate

Date: 01/09/2015 to 15/12/2015     Type: Online

It is often said that the future is urban.


More than half of the world?s 7.3 billion people currently live in cities. By 2050, we expect it will be more than two-thirds.


Like them or not, cities matter. But what will cities look like in the future, and what impact will they have on the rest of the planet?


he Trust for Sustainable Living is pleased to announce that the theme of the TSL 2016 International Schools Essay Competition and Debate is: Are Sustainable Cities Possible?


Are ?sustainable cities? just wishful thinking or can we make them a reality ? and if so, how?


Schoolchildren around the globe (age 7-17) are invited to put their thoughts into words and submit their essays before the 15th December 2015 deadline. (Note that the deadline is slightly earlier this year to allow for cooler weather at the Debates in Dubai.)


The competition and debate are aimed at primary students (ages 7-11) and secondary students (ages 11-17) and their teachers in both formal and home schools. One overall Grand Prize Winner (plus Teacher Champion and Parent) will receive a free trip to the 2016 Debates & Awards in Dubai, hosted by the Jumeirah English Speaking School (17-21 April 2016), and prizes will be awarded for 1st to 5th Places in each category (Primary and Secondary). All participating schools will be invited to attend the Debates & Awards.
