SVK Minister of Defence Martin Glváč announced the 11th Literary Competition for secondary school and college students. This year they are invited to join the competition by sending their stories, compositions or essays on the theme: “Life in peace: A matter of course for us, the desire of all…”. The deadline for the entries to be forwarded by email to sutaz@mod.gov.sk is on 17 November 2015. “Even with regard to what’s going on in the world, we have selected a topic related to peace. Many take peace for granted, however, the current security situation leads us to ponder over it. That’s why it will be interesting to read about how the recent developments are perceived and looked on by students,” noted Minister of Defence Martin Glváč.
The contributions to the competition, which are expected to be forwarded by the midnight of 17 November 2015, will be evaluated by an MOD committee who are to select 5 finalists in two categories of entry: college students and secondary school students. As part of the second round, the general public will be involved in voting on the results of the competition via the social networking site Facebook. By voting on the SVK MOD’s Facebook page, the public will pick the first three winners in each category of entry. The winners will receive financial rewards worth €400, €300, and €200.
Entries for the competition, written either in a non-fictional journalist or fictional genre in the Slovak language, with the word count between 500 – 700 words, should be sent in one of the following formats – .doc, .docx or .odf, together with personal data (first name, surname, age, name of school, telephone number). The results of the competition will be released on 1 December 2015 on the official SVK MOD website at www.mosr.sk and the SVK MOD Facebook page, where detailed information about the competition is available to the public.
