2022 Queen’s Commonwealth Essay Competition for Young Writers
Applications for the 2022 Queen’s Commonwealth Essay Competition for Young Writers in commonwealth countries have commenced.
Successful winners and runner-ups stand a chance to win a trip to London for a week of educational and cultural events, culminating in a special Awards Ceremony.
Each year, young people are asked to write on a theme that explores the Commonwealth’s values and principles, fostering an empathetic and open-minded worldview in the next generation of Commonwealth leaders. Recent themes have focused on the environment, inclusion, the role of youth leadership, and gender equality. Annually, winners are invited to travel to the United Kingdom for a week of educational and cultural activities, which culminates in a special Awards Ceremony, usually held at Buckingham Palace, that is hosted by the Society’s Vice-Patron, Her Royal Highness The Duchess of Cornwall. Past winners have gone on to become prominent leaders, including the Prime Minister of Singapore, Mr. Lee Hsien Loong, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Mei Fong, and the renowned author, Elspeth Huxley.
