“YOUNG MINDS” – AN AMAZING OPPORTUNITY FOR YOUNG AFRICANS TO MEET GLOBAL CHANGE-MAKERS AT GOOGLE’S ZEITGEIST 2011 EVENT


UK based Youth engagement enterprise Livity proudly announces Young Minds, a competition supported by Google to find the pioneers, change makers and leaders of tomorrow to take their place alongside the greatest minds and innovators of today at Google’s Zeitgeist 2011 event near London on May 15 - 17.

Young Minds is an amazing opportunity for young people to get involved and win the chance to fly to London (all expenses paid) and represent their country on a global scale in front of amazing inspirational leaders, thinkers and social innovators from around the world.

From January 31st until March 21st, the search will be on to find exceptional, motivated and inspiring 18-24 year-olds who are doing their bit to help their community and make a difference to the world we live in.

To enter Young Minds, entrants must be:

Aged 18- 24 years old
Speak fluent English
Have a passport to travel to the UK
Have access to a computer
An email account
Be available to travel to the UK and stay during 14th - 18th May 2011

Winners will be invited to attend Google’s Zeitgeist event, where previous speakers have included Archbishop Desmond Tutu, former US President Bill Clinton, Black Eyed Peas superstar Will.I.Am and global entrepreneur Sir Richard Branson.
Young Minds is a space for young people to share how they've made or are making a positive impact to the world around them. We want to hear their stories, by getting them to upload a YouTube video no longer then a minute to www.Zeitgeistyoungminds.com

So, whether they’re a budding entrepreneur, social activist, or just passionate about something like books, then we want to know and just need them to talk about what they do, how they do it, why they do it and the positive impact it is having on the world around them.
