Do you blog about development issues such as food security, financial inclusion, global public health, and more?

Would you like to be published on the World Bank Group’s Voices blog?

If the answer to those questions is yes (and you meet the eligibility criteria below), we’re excited to invite you to enter our first Spring Meetings Voices Blog Contest.

The contest is an opportunity to share your perspective on pressing development issues discussed at the World Bank Group-IMF Spring Meetings in Washington the week of April 13.

We’re looking for original, well-written posts related to the Spring Meetings and the World Bank Group’s mission to end extreme poverty and promote shared prosperity.
We’ll choose up to five winners and link to all entered and accepted blog posts from the Voices blog.

Prizes
A panel of expert judges from inside and outside the World Bank Group will select up to five winning posts to be published on the World Bank Group’s Voices blog during the month of May 2015 and promoted on World Bank corporate social media channels.
Each of the winners will have the opportunity to submit another blog post to the World Bank on a subject of their choosing related to international development, for consideration for the Voices blog within the next six months. If accepted, the posts will be published on Voices. The World Bank Group reserves the rights to edit any blog posts to comply with its editorial and other policies and guidelines.

Grand prize
From the winning entries, the judges will choose one grand prize winner who, in addition to the prize described above, will also win an opportunity to interview a senior World Bank Group official during the next six months, and write a blog post based on that interview. That blog also will be considered for publication on Voices. The World Bank Group reserves the rights to edit any blog posts to comply with its editorial and other policies and guidelines.
