58 video clips were entered in the 1st “Talking to The World 2016” contest
Over 30 video clips addressing the topic of dreams and future careers were entered. Each contestant and groups of contestants had different ways of expressing their thoughts, but they all had beautiful dreams, a desire to be useful for the society and to bring pride to their country. There were big humanitarian dreams such as finding cures or building houses for the poor; and helping poor children to go to school. And there were small, modest dreams such as the reunion of the whole family for meals or the bonding between parents and children.

The voices of the children spoke of themselves and family, but also referred to many social issues including environmental protection, water protection or the common issues that young children face such as online game addiction or puberty. The contest has provided an opportunity for family and schools to understand and share the problems that children are facing, and thus, help find solutions and provide support.
